Statistical analysis of the qPCR results was performed in analogy to the described earlier method53 (link). PCR efficiency of each reaction was ranged from 92% to 99%. The results from the biological replicates for particular samples were gathered to determine the mean normalized expression and its standard deviation (Bio-Rad CFX Manager 3.0). The normalized relative expression of ZsGreen1 from biological replicates for siRNAs and control siRNA was compared at a significance level of 0.05 or 0.01 using Bio-rad CFX Manager 3.0. Statistically significant differences in mean expression between tested siRNAs and control siRNA (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01) were observed but not in all samples.
