Abstract In order to construct a RT-qPCR system suitable for response of Avena fatua L. to Trichoderma polysporum , and screen stable internal reference genes, GeNorm, NormFinder, BestKeeper and RefFinde were used to perform SYBR Green-based RT-qPCR analysis on 8 candidate internal reference genes ( 18S , 28S , TUA , UBC , ACT , GAPDH , TBP and EF-1 ) in A. fatua samples after inoculation of T. polysporum Strain HZ-31. The results showed that TBP , 18S and UBC were the most stable internal reference genes, TBP and TUA , TBP and GAPDH , 18S and TBP , UBC and 18S were the most suitable combination of the two internal reference genes, which could be used as the internal reference genes for functional gene expression analysis during the interaction between T. polysporum and A. fatua .

In studies of gene expression in acute ischemic heart tissue, internal reference genes need to show stable expression per-unit-living tissue to hinder dead cells from biasing real-time RT-PCR data. Until now, this important issue has not been appropriately investigated. We hypothesized that the expression of seven internal reference genes would show stable per-unit-living tissue expression in Langendorff-perfused rat hearts subjected to ischemia-reperfusion. This was found for cyclophilin A, GAPDH, RPL-32, and PolR2A mRNA, with GAPDH showing the highest degree of stability ( R = 0.11), suggesting unchanged rates of mRNA transcription in live cells and complete degradation of mRNA from dead cells. The infarct size-dependent degradation of GAPDH was further supported by a close correlation between changes in GAPDH mRNA and changes in RNA quality measured as RNA integrity number (R = 0.90, P < 0.05). In contrast, β-actin and 18S rRNA showed stable expression per-unit-weight tissue and a positive correlation with infarct size (R = 0.61 and R = 0.77, P < 0.05 for both analyses). The amount of total RNA extracted per-unit-weight tissue did not differ between groups despite wide variation in infarct size (7.1–50.1%). When β-actin expression was assessed using four different normalization strategies, GAPDH and geNorm provided appropriate per-unit-living expression, while 18S and total RNA resulted in marked underestimations. In studies of ischemic tissues, we recommend using geometric averaging of carefully selected reference genes for normalization of real-time RT-PCR data. A marked shift in the mRNA/rRNA ratio renders rRNA as useless for normalization purposes.
