Figure 5. The effects of temperature stress on the relative mRNA expression levels of ZmCAT.

Amplification of eIF4A gene was used as an internal control. The ZmCAT expression levels at 20°C was set to 100%. Values shown as means ± SD (n = 5), bars marked with dissimilar letters represent significant differences (p < 0.05) from each other according to S-N-K multiple comparisons tests.
