The selection and validation of reference genes for quantitative real-time PCR studies in near-isogenic susceptible and resistant tomato lines, infected with the geminivirus tomato curly stunt virus.

ABSTRACT: Quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) is a sensitive and commonly used technique for gene expression profiling and provides insight into biological systems. Successful qPCR requires the use of appropriate reference genes for the normalization of data. In the present study, we aimed to identify and assess the best-suited reference genes in near-isogenic resistant (R) and susceptible (S) tomato lines infected with begomovirus Tomato curly stunt virus (ToCSV). Ten candidate reference genes namely, Actin7 (ACT), β-6 Tubulin (TUB), Ubiquitin 3 (UBI), Clathrin adaptor complexes medium subunit (CAC), Phytoene desaturase (PDS), Expressed protein (EXP), Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), Adenine phosphoribosyl transferase-like protein (APT1), TAP42-interacting protein (TIP41) and Elongat
