Duplex PCR To Differentiate between <i>Mycoplasma synoviae</i> and <i>Mycoplasma gallisepticum</i> on the Basis of Conserved Species-Specific Sequences of Their Hemagglutinin Genes

Abstract excerpt

We developed a duplex PCR assay targeting the hemagglutinin multigene families, vlhA and pMGA, of Mycoplasma synoviae and Mycoplasma gallisepticum, respectively. The assay proved to be specific and sensitive enough to justify its use for the simultaneous detection of the two major avian mycoplasma species from field isolates.
