A protozoa-specific primer (P-SSU-342f) was designed and paired with a eukarya-specific primer to amplify a 1,360-bp fragment of DNA encoding protozoal small subunit (SSU) ribosomal RNA from ruminal fluid of cows fed a mixed forage:grain diet or alfalfa hay. Sequencing of clones showed that P-SSU-342f is specific to ruminal protozoa and, with slight modifications, the primer will be useful for ecological studies of ruminal protozoa.
设计了一种原生动物特异性引物(P-SSU-342f),并将其与真核生物特异性引物配对,以从喂食混合草料:谷物日粮或苜蓿干草的奶牛瘤胃液中扩增编码原生动物小亚基(SSU)核糖体RNA的1360 bp DNA片段。克隆测序表明,P-SSU-342f对瘤胃原生动物具有特异性,稍加修改后,该引物将有助于瘤胃原生动物的生态学研究。
