RT-qPCR is a sensitive, efficient and reliable method for
gene expression studies and reference gene expression
stability was essential for RT-qPCR. Since previous studies
showed that no reference gene could exhibit changeless
expression pattern in all experiments, this study determined
the gene expression stability of 11 reference genes across
various treatments in Anoectochilus roxburghii. The results
indicated that expression stability of genes varied
considerably under different treatments. The genes, GAPDH,
EF1a and ACT1 emerged as the most reliable reference
genes.
