The integrity of total RNAs isolated from unaged and acceleratedly aged wheat (a) and canola (b) seeds. Total RNAs were isolated from dry seeds of wheat and canola, as shown in Figure 1 and described in the Materials and Methods. The AA days for the seeds are indicated at the top of the figure. There were six wheat or canola seed samples with two replicates of total RNAs labeled as a and b. The same amount of total RNA (0.5 μg) was loaded into each lane in the 1% agarose gel, which was subjected to electrophoresis.
