Specific Primers For Identification and Detection of Three Major Desert Truffle Species in Iran with Special Reference to Terfezia claveryi

ABSTRACT- Desert truffles are hypogeous ascomyceteous ectomycorrhizal fungi, occurring in arid and semi-arid ecosystems. A PCR-based method was developed for the identification of 3 major desert truffles of Iran: Terfezia claveryi, Tirmania pinoyi and Tirmania nivea based on internal transcribed spacers of rDNA. Two specific PCR primers were designed for T. claveryi, 4 for T. pinoyi, and 2 for ...

Strain-specific identification of probiotic Lactobacillus rhamnosus with randomly amplified polymorphic DNA-derived PCR primers.

In the present work, strain-specific PCR primers for Lactobacillus rhamnosus Lc 1/3 are described. The randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) technique was used to produce potential strain-specific markers. They were screened for specificity by hybridization with DNA from 11 L. rhamnosus strains. A 613-bp RAPD marker found to be strain-specific was sequenced, and a primer pair specific to L....

Specific PCR-primers for detection of Picoa lefebvrei desert truffle in Carex stenophylla roots

Picoa species are hypogeous desert truffles, which can be found in semi-arid ranges of North Africa, West Asian, South of Europe and Middle East, including Iran (Moreno et al. 2000, Jamali & Banihashemi 2012, 2013). Picoa species form symbiosis mainly on roots of annual and perennial herbaceous plants of the Helianthemum, including H. ledifolium and H. salicifolium var. salicifolium (Jamali & B...

a sensitive and specific pcr based method for identification of cryptosporidium sp. using new primers from 18s ribosomal rna

background: the main goal of the present study was to develop a new sensitive and specific pcr based method for identification of cryptosporidium sp. using novel primers from 18s ribosomal rna. cryptosporidi­osis in high-risk host groups particularly in neonates and immuno-compromised individuals may result in death. to the best of our knowledge this is the first study regarding develop a new p...
