Quantification and Gene Expression Analysis of Histone Deacetylases in Common Bean during Rust Fungal Inoculation

PCR amplification of HDAC genes under study. (a) Primers for the selected genes were amplified by PCR with Sierra genomic DNA and electrophoresed on a 2% agarose gel. In positive (+ve) control, reference gene TC362 primers were used and in negative (−ve) control no primers were added to the PCR reaction. (b) The same HDACs primers were tested with experimental cDNA by PCR amplification and electrophoresed on a 2% agarose gel. In +ve control, genomic DNA was used instead of cDNA and in −ve control no primers were added to the PCR reaction.
