  1. Percentages are shown in parentheses. Common genes to both time points, as well as total number of correlated genes considering both time points are also shown. Note that a given transcript may correlate with multiple malt quality traits. ME: malt extract, GP: grain protein content, S/T: ratio of wort soluble protein to total malt protein, DP: diastatic power, AA: alpha-amylase activity, BG: malt beta-glucan content.
