Detection Image Detection method details

Name:

 QT-TAX-ZM-002

Description:

 Quantitative real-time PCR (TaqMan) method for detection of the maize high-mobility-group A (hmgA) gene (ISO 21570).

Estimated number of target copies per haploid genome (Jacchia et al. 2018): 1

Comment:

 Target is the endogenous high-mobility-group A (hmgA) gene from Zea mays. This assay is recommended for quantitative GMO analysis.
