Validation and application of a PCR primer set to quantify fungal communities in the soil environment by real-time quantitative PCR.

Fungi constitute an important group in soil biological diversity and functioning. However, characterization and knowledge of fungal communities is hampered because few primer sets are available to quantify fungal abundance by real-time quantitative PCR (real-time Q-PCR). The aim in this study was to...
