8 15 2015 CARM CTM2 reps qPCR

Today I ran replicates of all populations and all treatments to generate data about expression values. Here I ran CARM. To save on cDNA I stopped running full replicates of the Control and Temperature samples with the mech stress samples. I run partials made up of 8 samples for Control and 8 of Heat. 

Primers:

This qPCR failed entirely. I'm assuming I screwed up the master mix somehow. Probably by not adding one of the two primers. I'm going to make fresh primer working stock and rerun this qPCR next week.
