Mainland RL, Lyons TA, Ruth MM, Kramer JM. Optimal RNA isolation method and primer design to detect gene knockdown by qPCR when validating Drosophila transgenic RNAi lines. BMC Res Notes. 2017 Nov 29;10(1):647. PMID: 29187229.
From the abstract: "... the strongest gene knockdown was detected when qPCR was performed using 5' primer sets in combination with mRNA-derived cDNA. Our results indicate that detection of undegraded mRNA cleavage fragments can result in underestimation of true knockdown efficiency for a RNAi construct. ..."
