^*Letters in the first position indicate the annotation version for japonica, O represents OGE/IOMAP annotation (generate by the Oryza Genome Evolution and International Oryza Map Alignment Projects), U stands for MSU, R stands for RAP-DB. Letters in the second position indicate the annotation version for indica, O stands for OGE/IOMAP, G stands for GLEAN. Letters in third position indicate the different species, T for Arabidopsis thaliana (TAIR annotation), S for Sorghum bicolor, and Z for Zea mays.
