Reference gene selection for gene expression study in shell gland and spleen of laying hens challenged with infectious bronchitis virus

Abstract Ten reference genes were investigated for normalisation of candidate target gene expression data in the shell gland and spleen of laying hens challenged with two strains of infectious bronchitis virus (IBV). Data were analysed with geNorm, NormFinder and BestKeeper, and a comprehensive rank...
