Relative quantification (RT-qPCR) of selective LusHSF genes between HT-treated and control plants of JRF-2 and Viking cultivars. (a) The upper panel shows the effect of HT stress treatments at 40 °C for 12 hrs in flax cultivars, which were used for total RNA extractions. (b) The relative gene expression fold change (2−ΔΔCt) of twelve selected LusHSF genes are represented as bar diagrams. The Ct values of each sample-HSF gene combination were normalized using the reference gene ETIF3E and calibrated with Ct values of Viking control to estimate (2−ΔΔCt) values. The statistical significance of the expression values is represented by ‘ns’ as non-significant, and ‘*‘ as significant at p > 0.05 and Bonferroni’s multiple comparisons test. One asterisk (*) represents adjusted P values between 0.01 and 0.05, and two asterisks (**) represent adjusted P values between 0.01 and 0.001, and so on. RNA samples include Vik_C: Viking under control conditions; Vik_H: Viking under HT stress conditions; JRF-2_C: JRF-2 under control conditions; JRF-2_H: JRF-2 under HT stress conditions.
