Table 3 Summary of the total number of DEGs, DEGs common to both cultivars and cultivar-specific DEGs

Tissue	Contrasts	Total number of DEGs		Common DEGs	Specific DEGs
		Eurosis	Loto		Eurosis	Loto
Roots	3 h control vs. 3 h stress	6007	3962	2552^a	3455	1410
Roots	24 h control vs. 24 h stress	3065	3102	1789	1276	1313
Leaves	3 h control vs. 3 h stress	2977	3088	2040	937	1048
Leaves	24 h control vs. 24 h stress	4223	4813	3187	1036	1626

^aAmong the 2552 common DEGs, 53 genes were oppositely regulated between the 2 genotypes, whereas 2499 were modulated in the same manner in the 2 genotypes
