I have many isolates of Pyrenophora teres and i want to know the fsp for them, is ITS region sequencing give me a good results for that.
Bette to include more regions like 1Ealfa, and other genes will give you better results
Hi Oadi,
Due to the high similarity among P. graminea, P. teres f. teres and P. teres f. maculata, ITS is not reliable to differentiate amongst these pathogens. Housekeeping genes such as Btub, GPD or Actin are not suitable, either. EF1 might be similar (I have never tried).
You should use specific PCR primers. There are different primer sets available for PG, PTT and PTM. It is always useful to include PG as control.
FOR PG:

FOR PTT and PTM:

Hope this helps you.
cheers,
József
