Other claims from this paper (4)
- Method / resource Copy numbers of the target gene obtained from the two real-time PCR assays were strongly correlated in bulk samples (r = 0.97).
- Association EF1α gene copy number from the SYBR Green assay was correlated with ergosterol content of the wheat kernels (r = 0.88).
- Method / resource The primer and probe sequences were specific to F. graminearum s. str. and F. asiaticum.
- Method / resource The TaqMan assay is suitable for quantifying infections by these Fusarium species.
