Abstract excerpt
AIMS: We describe a novel and inexpensive fluorescence energy transfer (FRET)-based PCR protocol to distinguish single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within the genus Listeria. METHODS AND RESULTS: Sequence information for the 16S rRNA gene of representative Listeria species was used to design genus-specific primers and two species-specific probes that differed in sequence by one single nucleotide. The probes...
