Table 1 List of primers for qRT-PCR. Sequence of primers (forward and reverse) used for qRT-PCR experiments. GenBank accession numbers for each gene are indicated in brackets. The primers were designed using an old version of the software Primer 3.0, available at the following website: http://www-genome.wi.mit.edu/cgi-bin/primer/primer3.cgi/
