This study compares gene expression values between microarray data and RT-PCR for 7 genes at different developmental stages. The correlation coefficients indicate high concordance. The relative gene expression levels were calculated using the 2-ΔΔCT method.

Comparisons of expression values for genes selected from the microarray data (open bars) with values generated with real time (RT)-PCR (close bars). The correlation coefficient between the values calculated for each of the 7 genes with microarray and RT-PCR are shown at the bottom of each panel. The relative level of gene expression was analyzed with the 2-∆∆CT method described by Livak and Schmittgen, (2001) using actin (accession number AF111812) as a reference and the common reference (combined pooled of the seven sample stages) as the calibrator r2=0.97 r2=0.93 r2=0.85
