Total RNA was extracted from the mature pollen of HTR10mRFP plants and each GCS1_RNAi line. The flowers at anthesis were collected in 1.5 mL tubes to reach around 1 mL of volume. Afterward, approximately 1 mL of acetone was added, considering the maintenance of pollen viability through dehydration, followed by vortexing for 1 min to liberate the pollen. The acetone solution containing pollen grains was transferred to a new tube, and then centrifuged at 15,000 rpm for 1 min. After removing the supernatant, the pollen was air-dried and kept at −80 °C until RNA isolation. For each transgenic line, total RNA was isolated from five tubes containing the collected pollen using an ISOSPIN Plant RNA kit (Nippon Gene Co., Ltd., Tokyo, Japan). The first-strand cDNA synthesis from 100 ng of total RNA was performed with a kit ReverTra Ace® qPCR RT Master Mix with gDNA Remover (TOYOBO Co. Ltd., Osaka, Japan) using oligo(dT) primer. Real-time PCR reactions were performed using KOD SYBR qPCR Mix (TOYOBO) and an Applied Biosystems StepOnePlus Real-Time PCR System. The target sequence of GCS1 was amplified with the primers GCS1qRTf and GCS1qRTr (Table S1). eIFG4 (At3g60240), as an internal standard, was also amplified with the primers AteIFG4f and AteIFG4r (Table S1).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
