“…Nuclear RNA was isolated and cDNA libraries were sequenced yielding 150 bp paired-end reads (SData 1). Although nuclear RNA contains higher levels of pre-RNA and unspliced transcripts (Long et al, 2021), a high correlation between nuclear and total cellular mRNA has previously been demonstrated in plants, also including triploid endosperm tissue (Jacob et al, 2007;Deal and Henikoff, 2010;Del Toro-De León and Köhler, 2019;Picard et al, 2021). An average of 25 million reads per replicate mapped to Col-0 and Tsu-1 reference transcriptomes polished by Pilon (Walker et al, 2014) (SData 1).…”
