Standard addition quantitative real-time PCR (SAQPCR): a novel approach for determination of transgene copy number avoiding PCR efficiency estimation.
Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) has been previously applied to estimate transgene copy number in transgenic plants. However, the results can be erroneous owing to inaccurate estimation of PCR efficiency. Here, a novel qPCR approach, named standard addition qPCR (SAQPCR), was...
