5'-tailed sequencing primers improve sequencing quality of PCR products.

Rapid sequencing of unpurified PCR products by thermal asymmetric PCR cycle sequencing using unlabeled sequencing primers.

Numerous methods have been developed for direct sequencing of single or double-stranded DNA amplified by PCR, and most require template purification steps prior to sequencing to remove excess unincorporated primers and dNTPs. Purification methods can be cumbersome, laborious and time consuming, or yield low DNA recoveries. Strategies for direct sequencing of doublestranded DNA products without ...

Position-dependent effects of locked nucleic acid (LNA) on DNA sequencing and PCR primers

Genomes are becoming heavily annotated with important features. Analysis of these features often employs oligonucleotides that hybridize at defined locations. When the defined location lies in a poor sequence context, traditional design strategies may fail. Locked Nucleic Acid (LNA) can enhance oligonucleotide affinity and specificity. Though LNA has been used in many applications, formal desig...

Panero and Crozier: Asteraceae Chloroplast Dna Primers Primers for Pcr Amplification of Asteraceae

Primers for the amplification and sequencing of DNA fragments from chloroplast genes and non-coding regions are provided to facilitate molecular phylogenetic studies aimed at building a tree-of-life for the Asteraceae. The primers reported here have been extensively tested and some empirical guidelines are included to facilitate their use.
