Background: Yersinia pestis, the causative agent of the zoonotic infection plague, is a major concern as a potential bioweapon. Current real-time PCR assays used for Y. pestis detection are based on plasmid targets, some of which may generate false-positive results.
Methods: Using the yp48 gene of Y. pestis, we designed and tested 2 real-time Ta...
