Table 4.
Number of genes showing novel expression patterns and putative homoeolog silencing in somatic hybrids.
| Taxa | Novel expression (%) | A silencing (%) | E silencing (%) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ga | 8.1% | 15.7% | 8.1% |
| Gs | 4.6% | 4.6% | 16.6% |
| AS | 15.3% + 7.9% + 5.4% = 28.6% | 15.7% + 4.6% + 4.7% + 15.3% = 40.3% | 8.1% + 16.6% + 4.6% + 15.3% = 44.6% |
Calculated by dividing the number of genes by 2240 units (each amplification in G. arboreum, G. stocksii and somatic hybrids with one primer combination).
