Overall, ERV3 was not detected in 649 (19.2 ) samples. During the first 8-months of batching and screening conducted in the laboratory, the number of ERV3 negative samples ranged from 11 to 25 in each 92 extraction run with a m

Acer (ITS) region was performed using 10 pmoles of forward and reverse primers (ITS1 forward primer TCCGTAGGT GAACCTGCGG and ITS4-reverse primer TCCTCCGC TTA TTGATATGC [35], 25 L of Qiagen SYBR master mix (Qiagen, Australia) and 5 L of template in a total 50 L reaction mix. Cycling was performed using the following conditions: 95 for 15 min, 45 cycles of 95 for 30 sec, 50 for 30 sec and 72 for
