Annotation and expression levels of the 20 most highly expressed transcripts in the developing endosperm (JD). The columns JD and JG shows the number of ESTs for each unisequence in developing and germinating endosperm, respectively. The p-value refers to the Audic-Claverie statistics for differential expression
