The relationship between the eight barley transcriptome datasets based on their location on the Morex Reference Genome can be accessed here. You can use this webpage to translate a list of gene IDs to the equivalent locations on the Morex Reference Genome for all other transcriptome datasets.
These comparisons between the various barley transcriptomes were produced by first using GMAP to map the transcriptomes against the Morex Reference Genome assembly and generate locations. The GMAP mapping was run with parameters restricting the results to the single best match with 90% sequence identity and 80% transcript coverage. Then gffcompare was used to compare the GMAP locations of the transcriptomes to the locations of the reference transcript dataset (HvMxRTD annotation).
