Abstract
There is provided means for detecting the presence and predominance of a polyhydroxyalkanoate synthesizing microorganism in a rapid, convenient, specific, and sensitive way. There is provided a method of detecting a PHA synthesizing microorganism having the intended PHA synthetase gene by using the nucleic acid fragment comprising at least partial sequence thereof, based on a base sequence shown in SEQ ID NO:1 to 9 or complementary base sequence thereof, as a probe or primer for detecting a PHA synthetase gene.
Claims25
A nucleic acid fragment selected from any of a base sequence shown in SEQ ID NOs:
- 1 to 9, or complementary base sequence thereof, or modified sequence subjected to a mutation based on these base sequences.
Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
