Fig 1.

Evaluation of previously reported reference genes and new candidate reference genes.

A boxplot of RNA-Seq data showing the expression levels of 37 previously reported primer sets from 28 known reference genes and 7 new candidate reference genes. The expression level of each target was shown. White boxes: Group 1 RNA-Seq data; Grey boxes: Group 2 RNA-Seq data. Primer sets with multiple targets were marked with brackets. Primer sets marked in red were chosen for RT-qPCR validation.
