Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
We developed a quantitative real-time PCR assay to specificity detect and quantify the genus Alcaligenes in samples from the agricultural environment, such as vegetables and farming soils. The minimum detection sensitivity was 106 fg of pure culture DNA, corresponding to DNA extracted from two cells of A. faecalis. To evaluate the detection limit of A. faecalis, serially diluted genomic DNA from A. faecalis was mixed with DNA extracted from soil and vegetables, and then a standard curve was constructed. These results indicated that Alcaligenes species are present in the plant phytosphere at levels 10(2) -10(4) times lower than those in soil. Our approach will be useful for tracking or quantifying species of the genus Alcaligenes in the agricultural environment. |
