Method to determine zygosity of the fad2 gene in canola using end-point PCR

摘要

The subject disclosure relates in part to endpoint PCR assays for the detection and high throughput zygosity analysis of the fad-2 gene in canola. The subject disclosure further relates, in part, to the use of wild type DNA as a reference for use in determining zygosity. These and other related procedures can be used to uniquely identify the zygosity and variety of canola lines comprising the subject gene. The subject disclosure also provides related kits for determining zygosity from a sample of a canola plant or seed, for example.
