Table 1. List of DEGs significant decreasing expression for cv. S29 and increasing expression for cv. YP in response to cold stress (E-value < 0.05 after Benjamini–Yekutieli correction).

Cold expose	T. aestivum gene	A. thaliana ortholog	Description according to TAIR database
24 h	TraesCS2A01G583500	AT2G35460	Late embryogenesis abundant (LEA) hydroxyproline-rich glycoprotein family
	TraesCS4D01G063900	AT3G57450	hypothetical protein
	TraesCS5A01G185700	AT2G46400	Encodes a WRKY transcription factor that contributes to the feedforward inhibition of osmotic/salt stress-dependent LR inhibition via regulation of ABA signaling and auxin homeostasis.
	TraesCS6D01G136200	AT1G80840	Pathogen-induced transcription factor. Binds W-box sequences in vitro. Forms protein complexes with itself and with WRKY40 and WRKY60. Coexpression with WRKY18 or WRKY60 made plants more susceptible to both P. syringae and B. cinerea. WRKY18, WRKY40, and WRKY60 have partially redundant roles in response to the hemibiotrophic bacterial pathogen Pseudomonas syringae and the necrotrophic fungal pathogen Botrytis cinerea, with WRKY18 playing a more important role than the other two. The mRNA is cell-to-cell mobile.
	TraesCS5B01G059900	AT3G22930	Encodes a calmodulin-like protein.
	TraesCS5D01G235600	AT2G31945	transmembrane protein
