RNA was isolated using TRI reagent (Sigma-Aldrich). 1 µg of RNA was used to perform a reverse transcriptase reaction using GoScript Reverse transcriptase (Promega, Mannheim, Germany). GoTaq qPCR master mix (Promega) was used for Real-time quantitative PCR reaction. These reactions were performed by following the respective manufacturer’s instructions. The Livak method (Livak and Schmittgen, 2001) was used to calculate relative quantification. The list of Real-Time qPCR primers used in the study are available in the supplementary information.
