Pgt genes that are associated with sRNAs up-regulated in germinated spores and their functional GO term enrichment. We assessed GO term enrichments of the annotated molecular function of Pgt genes that are associated with sRNAs compared to all other Pgt genes (FDR < 0.00001). The top ten categories with the lowest FDR are shown

Enriched GO term category	False discovery rate (FDR)	# of genes
Genes that are associated with sRNAs up-regulated in germinated spores
ATP binding	1.7 × 10−35	233
Helicase activity	1.5 × 10−13	47
Motor activity	4.5 × 10−11	25
RNA binding	6.5 × 10−10	110
Shikimate 3-dehydrogenase (NADP+) activity	1.7 × 10−9	8
Histone methyltransferase activity (H3-K4 specific)	4.2 × 10−9	9
