Supplementary Materials Supplementary Table 1. Expression levels of gene transcripts differentially expressed in the moderately resistant progenies at 60 hpi. Supplementary Figure 1. Total, quality trimmed and mapped reads (in million bp) in each genotype. Figures after ‘-’ indicate hours post-inoculation when the samples were collected. Mapped reads may be positioned at multiple locations in the genome. Supplementary Figure 2. Functional representation of the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) at 60 hpi. The transcripts were categorized into: a) biological process, b) cellular component and c) molecular function. Supplementary Figure 3. Gene Ontology (GO) analysis of switchgrass biological processes transcripts differentially expressed in the resistant progeny at 60 hpi using agriGO. Each box shows the GO term number, the p-value in parenthesis and the GO term. The first pair of numerals represents the number of genes in the input list associated with that GO term and the number of genes in the input list. The second pair of numerals represents the number of genes associated with the particular GO term in the custom annotated switchgrass database and the total number of switchgrass genes with GO annotations in the database. The box colors indicate levels of statistical significance with yellow = 0.05, orange = e-05 and red = e-09. Supplementary Figure 4. Gene Ontology (GO) analysis of switchgrass cellular component transcripts differentially expressed in the resistant progeny at 60 hpi using agriGO. Each box shows the GO term number, the p-value in parenthesis and the GO term. The first pair of numerals represents the number of genes in the input list associated with that GO term and the number of genes in the input list. The second pair of numerals represents the number of genes associated with the particular GO term in the custom annotated switchgrass database and the total number of switchgrass genes with GO annotations in the database. The box colors indicate levels of statistical significance with yellow = 0.05, orange = e-05 and red = e-09.
