Abstract:
A quantitative PCR (qPCR) assay targeting a gene identified by suppressive subtractive hybridization (SSH) was developed to detect Propionibacterium acidipropionici P169, with a threshold of 10(4) CFU/U of dairy feed or rumen fluid. The report is the first using a molecular marker generated by SSH to quantify a bacterial strain in environmental samples.
