<p>The invention relates to a DNA oligonucleotide which is specific for Meloidogyne species, which DNA oligonucleotide has the following sequence: (a) a DNA sequence chosen from the group consisting of SEQ ID No. 1 to SEQ ID No. 20, or (b) a DNA sequence which under conditions of stringency hybridises with a sequence according to (a) and which is specific for Meloidogyne species. Furthermore, the invention relates to a DNA vector containing such a DNA oligonucleotide, as well as to a host cell containing such vector. The invention also relates to a process for determining the presence of a Meloidogyne species, according to which DNA is isolated from a sample to be analysed, and is subsequently subjected to a PCR reaction, using a DNA oligonucleotide according to the invention. Finally, the invention relates to a kit for determining the presence of a Meloidogyne species.</p> |
