Gene expression pattern of transcription factors, metabolic and signal transduction genes in coleoptiles of rad mutant after 7 days under complete submergence. Rice seeds (rad mutant and WT) were germinated under complete submergence for seven days after imbibition. Coleoptiles were dissected from rice seedlings, and total RNA was extracted. Quantitative RT-PCR analysis was performed for the selected genes listed in Fig. 1. Transcript levels of each gene were normalized to the transcript levels of rice TF2E (Os10g0397200) gene (used as a control gene). Each data point represents the means ± SD (n = 3)
