Table 2. Primer sets for RT-PCR and for the construction of in situ probes

These primers were used the reverse transcriptase-coupled PCR experiments. Other primers were used in the construction of probes for in situ hybridization. Primer3 [69] was used toredict suitable primers. Tm represents the melting temperature.
