Hi

I want to amplify the fragment of 2500 bp, but everytime it failed.  I performed touchdown PCR and I got amplicon size of 500 bp.  What might be the reason that I am unable to get the desired fragment.  Can I think based on 500 bp fragment that the taq polymerase failed to extend and amplify or whether one of the primer (forward or reverse) bind the template and other has a nonspecific binding resulting in 500 bp amplication?  Please enlighten me....
