A Novel Nested Polymerase Chain Reaction (n-PCR) Assay for Identifying Sorghum nitidum
This work developed a novel nested polymerase chain reaction (n-PCR) assay to identify Sorghum nitidum (S. nitidum). It has been designed a set of specific n-PCR inner primers Snit5/Snit2 and outer primers Nout1/Nout2 based on a conserved nucleotide sequence of adh1-like gene of S. nitidum. Fourteen...
