Abstract

A total of five traditional reference genes of Ustilaginoidea virens were systematically compared by using realtime quantitative PCR, including 18S rRNA, GAPDH, ubiquitin, βactin and αtubulin. The expression stability of the 5 candidate reference genes was evaluated with geNorm program when the fungus was 7, 8, 9 and 10 days old or exposed to 0.4 mol/L NaCl for 0 h,4 h, 8 h, 12 h, 16 h. The results showed that αtubulin2 and βactin were stably expressed when the fungus was at different days of age. For the case of 0.4 mol/L NaCl stress, βactin and αtubulin2 were also expressed stably. As a conclusion, βactin and αtubulin could be used as the reference genes for normalization of realtime quantitative PCR data.
