| quantitative phenotyping of x-disease resistance in chokecherry using real-time pcr. | a quantitative real-time sybr green pcr (qpcr) assay has been developed to detect and quantify x-disease phytoplasmas in chokecherry. an x-disease phytoplasma-specific and high sensitivity primer pair was designed based on the 16s rrna gene sequence of x-disease phytoplasmas. this primer pair was specific to the 16sriii group (x-disease) phytoplasmas. the qpcr method can quantify phytoplasmas from a dna mix (a mix of both chokecherry and x-disease phytoplasma dna) at as low as 0.001 ng, 10-fold ... | 2014 | 24389037 |
