| Po(P) | Pollen | Pistil | Transcripts expressed exclusively in mature pollen grains, not expressed in pistil nor in hydrated, or germinated pollen grains. |
| P(Po) | Pistil | Pollen | Transcripts expressed exclusively in pistil and hydrated and/or germinated pollen grains but not expressed in mature pollen grains. |
| P(L) | Pistil | Leaf | Transcripts expressed exclusively in pistils, but not in vegetative tissues (leaf) despite their common evaluative origin. |
| L(P) | Leaf | Pistil | Transcripts expressed exclusively in vegetative tissues (leaf) and hydrated or germinated pollen grains, but not in pistil. |
| Po(L) | Pollen | Leaf | Transcripts expressed exclusively in male reproductive tissues (pollen grains), but not in vegetative tissues (leaf). |
