Expression of AGL6 - and SEPALLATA3 -representatives in selected magnoliid and Ranunculales species using qRT-PCR. AGL6-like and SEP3-like qRT-PCR products from Asarum europaeum (a-b), Houttuynia cordata (c-d), Berberis julianae (e-f), Eschscholzia californica (g-h) and Papaver somniferum (i-j) are shown. Relative expression to ACTIN is shown using the delta Ct method. Floral material for Asarum, Berberis, Papaver and Eschscholzia were in the floral bud stage, except for Houttuynia where only mature flower material was available. The floral parts of Papaver and Eschscholzia were dissected from young mature flowers.
