Expression pattern of differentially expressed genes in the selected eight comparisons. The symbol "+ -" in table indicates lower expression of a gene in the second tissue as compared to the first tissue of a comparison given in the column header. The symbol "- +" indicates higher expression of a gene in the second tissue as compared to the first tissue of a comparison given in the column header. Transcripts annotated as being homologous to genes previously described to be involved in somatic embryogenesis in other plants (NCBI Entrez query "somatic embryogenesis") are marked in turquoise and correspond to the annotation given in Additional file 1.
