Effects of low temperatures on the alternative splicing of the clock genes. Ten-day-old Col-0 plants grown on MS-agar plates under LDs were transferred to 4°C under continuous light conditions. Whole plant materials were harvested at the indicated ZT points. The levels of the RNA splice variants of CCA1 (A), PRR7 (B), PRR9 (C), TOC1 (D), ELF3 (E), and ZTL (F) genes were determined by qRT-PCR. Biological triplicates were averaged. Bars indicate the standard error of the mean.
