GM (Geometric Mean), AM (Arithmetic mean), Min (Minimum), Max (Maximum), SD (Standard Deviation), CV (Coefficient of variance) of the Ct-value of the 20 samples (n) for each candidate gene. The last two rows show the coefficient of correlation (Corr.coeff.) and its p-value between the BestKeeper index and each of the candidate genes. The most reliable candidate gene is the one showing the highest correlation coefficient with the BestKeeper index (in bold).
