Validation of microarray results by quantitative real time PCR.

<p>Correlation plots indicating the relationship between qPCR results (fold change; Y- axis)) of six selected genes and the corresponding data from microarray analysis (X- axis). Fold changes of genes immediately after packing (0 h), and at 48 and 72 h during transport compared to the values prior to transport (basal) are displayed in the figure. Note that the fold changes for <i>scd</i> are 1/10^th of the actual changes.
