Quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) is widely used in molecular biology, although the
accuracy of the quantitative results is determined by the stability of the reference genes …

Gene expression analysis using quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) is a very sensitive
technique and its sensitivity depends on the stable performance of reference gene (s) used …

Plant calcium-dependent protein kinases (CDPKs) are key proteins implicated in calcium-
mediated signaling pathways of a wide range of biological events in the organism. The …

Lateral roots are crucial for plant growth and development, making them an important target
for research aiming to improve crop yields and food security. However, their endogenous …

Study on expression of genes for the traits associated with hypoxia tolerance during the
germination demands robust choice of reference genes for transcript data normalization and …

Centipedegrass (Eremochloa ophiuroides (Munro.) Hack.) is a species originating in China
