Selection and Validation of Reference Genes for RT-qPCR Analysis of Lipid Biosynthesis-Related Genes in Perilla frutescens
Perilla frutescens is a specialty oilseed crop rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids, particularly α-linolenic acid (ALA), and the molecular regulation of seed lipid metabolism is an active area of research. Reverse-transcription quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) is essential for investigating the molecular mechanisms underlyin...
