Tomato-Potato Global Match File part 1 (GMF 1). All GeneChip tomato target sequences were blasted against TIGR potato TA (release 2). Matches below a 5% perfect alignment threshold were discarded. The alignments are listed in separate sheets due to size constraints and are split into five parts (part 1 to 5). Parts 1 and 2 are contained in this first file (GMF 1), and parts 3 to 5 are included in additional file 2 (GMF 2). The first part of the Global Match File also includes alignments scoring above the 90% and 70%_PERF_ALIGN thresholds (ALL_90% and ALL_70% sheets, respectively). As a single probeset can produce more than one hit, both > 90% and > 70% sheets are accompanied by a further sheet listing non-redundant probesets above the corresponding threshold. The Global Match File was split into two parts due to upload size limits. Ideally the two files should be merged back together, this would then enable searches to be performed with just one query across the whole Global Match File alignments

differentially expressed genes (DEG) list. DEG are sorted in order of decreasing fold induction (expressed as Log fold changes). Each tomato probeset is accompanied by the three best matching potato TA sorted in order of decreasing alignment (%_PERF_ALIGN). For each TA, perfect alignment values, TA identification number and TA annotation are reported. Fields are separated by the "-|-" string.
