Target gene approaches: Gene expression in Daphnia magna exposed to predator-borne kairomones or to microcystin-producing and microcystin-free Microcystis aeruginosa

Table 2 Relative gene expression of the reference genes in D. magna after normalisation in the Chaoborus-kairomone experiment.

D. magna was raised either in a predator-free environment ('Calibrator'), or in incubation water of larvae of Chaoborus flavicans ('Invertebrate predator').Values are mean of n = 3 replicates ± SD.
^aExpression levels are displayed relative to the mean control level
^bSD is the variation of one reference gene across treatments
