Figure 2From: The roles of aldehyde dehydrogenases (ALDHs) in the PDH bypass of ArabidopsisMutants used in this study do not accumulate detectable levels of ALDH transcripts. RNA samples extracted from whole plants were subjected to reverse-transcription PCR using primers specific for the indicated genes (Methods). m/m and +/+ designate RNA samples from plants homozygous for the mutant and wild type alleles, respectively, of the indicated genes. The actin2 gene serves as a positive control for RNA quality.Back to article page
