Genome-based PCR primers for specific and sensitive detection and quantification of Xylella fastidiosa
2006-06-01
Abstract excerpt
Xylella fastidiosa is an important pathogen of many commercial crops. Detection of X. fastidiosa is difficult due to low concentrations of the bacteria in insects and asymptomatic plant tissue, and non-uniform distribution in infected plants. A dual purpose conventional PCR and quantitative PCR (TaqMan) system was developed for the generic detection of X. fastidiosa strains. Primers HL5 and HL6, designed to amplif...
