Other claims from this paper (5)
- Method / resource The duplex PCR assay identifies B. rouxiae and B. basicola simultaneously without sequencing.
- Method / resource A new primer specifically amplifies a 159 bp amplicon of B. basicola.
- Method / resource The duplex PCR is sensitive enough to detect B. rouxiae from crude extracts prepared with a 5-min microwave-based DNA extraction.
- Method / resource Nested PCR combined with the duplex PCR successfully detects the BRR pathogen in 15–30 mg of diseased cotton tissue.
- Recommendation The duplex PCR is a valuable diagnostic tool for monitoring BRR pathogens in cotton in Australia.
