| Abstract |
Polymerase chain reaction amplification of conserved genes and sequence analysis provides a very powerful tool for the identification of toxigenic as well as non-toxigenic Penicillium species. Sequences are obtained by amplification of the gene fragment, sequencing via capillary electrophoresis of dideoxynucleotide-labeled fragments or NGS. The sequences are compared to a database of validated isolates. Identification of species indicates the potential of the fungus to make particular mycotoxins. |
