The expression of FvHsf genes in the diploid woodland strawberry (F. vesca) in response to 42°C treatment. Real-time quantitative PCR was performed to determine the expression of various FvHsfs in 42°C temperatures relative to control temperatures. The analysis results were normalized using Fv18s. The experiments were repeated three times and gave consistent results. The mean values and SDs were obtained from three biological and three technical replicates. The asterisks indicate that the corresponding gene was significantly up or down-regulated in response to treatment, as determined by the Student's t-test (^*P < 0.05, ^**P < 0.01).
