Validation of reference genes for quantitative real-time PCR during leaf and flower development in Petunia hybrida.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The hypersensitive necrosis response (HR) of resistant plants to avirulent pathogens is a form of programmed cell death in which the plant sacrifices a few cells under attack, restricting pathogen growth into adjacent healthy tissues. In spite of the importance of this defense response, relatively little is ...
