Knox10 gene is the only knotted-like gene ectopically expressed in leaves of DpDf plants. Expression of nine knotted-like maize genes was tested in meristematic and leaf tissue in wild type and DpDf plants using RT-PCR. Leaf and meristematic tissue was isolated from three seedlings for each of the genotypes. Mez1 gene was used as a control to equalize the cDNA concentrations for all the samples. The tissue type and genotype are indicated above the gel images. The first lane is a genomic DNA control while the last lane is a no template control (NTC). Control reactions were also performed on a no reverse-transcriptase control (data not shown).
