Abstract:This research investigated the factors associated with the quantitative detection of Paratrichodorus allius in soil using droplet digital PCR (ddPCR). Small-sized nematodes exhibited significantly lower DNA quantities compared to their medium and large counterparts. Soil pre-treatments (room temperature drying and 37 °C oven-drying) demonstrated no substantial impact on ddPCR detection, and soil storage (0–3 months at 4 °C) exhibited negligible alterations in DNA quantities. A commercial DNA purification kit i… Show more
