  1. a Average probe signal in nectaries (MLN, ILN, and MMN combined) over combined average probe signals for all reference tissues described in Additional file 2.
  2. b Full normalized probe signals for all genes called 'present' in nectary tissues are available in Additional file 3. An analysis of all nectary-enriched genes is described in Table 2 and Additional files 4, 5, 6 and 7.
