ABSTRACT
ERM and germinating spores. It compared with those of ^-tubulin and rRNA, in almost equal quantities (see Table 4.1). Table 4.1 Expression of genes relevant to metabolism and movement of lipids in the extraradical

Note: Triplicate real time RT-PCR was performed on 6 ng of DNAse 1 treated total RNA isolated from the two tissues. Table values are copy numbers with standard deviation shown in parentheses.
