    DNA was extracted with the Quick Fly genomic DNA extraction protocol (Gloor and Engels, 1992) from individual flies of interest. We used three different techniques to map introgression breakpoints: scoring of known restriction enzyme polymorphisms in PCR products, single-stranded conformation polymorphism of PCR products with the Phast Gel system (Amersham Biosciences, Separation Technique File No. 131), and allele-specific PCR followed by melting curve analysis (Papp et al., 2003; Gupta et al., 2005). Further details are presented in the Supplemental Data.

  • A simple and rapid genotyping assay for simultaneous detection of two ADRB2 allelic variants using fluorescence resonance energy transfer probes and melting curve analysis

    Citation Excerpt :

    A major advantage of the melting curve analysis is its simplicity as compared to the gold standard method of sequencing, which is time consuming because it involves PCR and post-PCR steps. Allelic discrimination based assays, although relatively simple, cannot distinguish between allelic variants in a single-tube reaction and might require separate PCR reactions using allelic specific primers to make that distinction33,34 or using multiplex allele specific PCR with post-PCR handling.31,32 The assay is rapid and reliable and can be performed in a single capillary tube without intervening steps and post-PCR handling, which limits associated problems, including contamination.
