Constitutively expressed melon gene -needed -

[moez torki]

Dear Arabido-Network readers,

Has anybody come across a constitutively expressed gene in melon ?
I want to use it as an internal control in RT-PCR experiments. I require a
gene that would  be expressed at a "constant level" in all developmental
satges and that would contain at least one intron.
All suggestions welcome.
