Selection and Validation of Reference Genes for RT-qPCR Analysis of Gene Expression in Nicotiana benthamiana upon Single Infections by 11 Positive-Sense Single-Stranded RNA Viruses from Four Genera

Abstract: Quantitative real-time PCR (RT-qPCR) is a widely used method for studying alterations in gene expression upon infections caused by diverse pathogens such as viruses. Positive-sense single-stranded (ss(+)) RNA viruses form a major part of all known plant viruses, and some of them are damaging pathogens of agriculturally important crops. Analysis of gene expression following infection by ss(+) RNA viruses is crucial for the identification of potential anti-viral factors. However, viral infections are known to gl… Show more

“…To select reference genes, we used a list of stably expressed plant genes previously established on Arabidopsis thaliana infected by several viruses (Zhang et al, 2023) . Orthologous genes were identified in Beta vulgaris using the KEGG database and primers compatible with TaqMan and SYBR Green detection were designed using the IDT Primer Request tool available online (https://eu.idtdna.com/pages/tools/primerquest).…”

“…Amplification of the genomes was achieved using KOD FX Neo high-fidelity DNA polymerase (TOYOBO, Japan) with specific primers. For quantitative PCR (qPCR), AceQ qPCR SYBR Green PCR Master Mix kit (Vazyme, Nanjing, China) was utilized, with the specificity of each reaction confirmed through melting curve analysis [42]. RT-qPCR was carried out on a LightCycler480 instrument (Roche, Basel, Switzerland) with 384-well PCR plates.…”

“…Three biological replicates were included for each experiment, and three technical replicates were set for each biological replicate. The thermal cycling conditions for RT-qPCR were 95 • C for 30 s, followed by 40 cycles of 15 s at 95 • C, 14 s at 55 • C, and 28 s at 72 • C. Melting curves were prepared with the following thermal conditions: 95 • C for 10 s, 60 • C for 30 s, and 95 • C for 15 s. Relative gene expression was analyzed using the 2 −∆∆CT method [42]. All primers utilized in this study are listed in Table S1.…”

“…The RT-qPCR was performed using the CFX Connect detection system (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Mississauga, ON, Canada). ACT 1 and EF1α were used to normalize the transcript levels [51]. Each sample was run in triplicate and repeated six times from two pooled biological replicates of silenced and non-silenced plants.…”
