Functional annotation of the differentially expressed genes. The analysis involved 41 GO functions in three categories shown on the right: biological process (1–18), cellular component (19–29) and molecular function (30–41) with 21 GO terms (2–13, 20, 22, 23, 30–36) enriched by DEGs common for four cultivars. Terms labelled with red boxes were exclusively enriched in only one comparison. Top nine GO terms significantly enriched (q-value < 0.05) are listed on the left. G9, M. sativa cv. Gannong No. 9; G3, M. sativa cv. Gannong No. 3; Q, M. sativa cv. Qingshui; L, M. sativa cv. Longzhong
