Detection limit of the duplex PCRs for both Ophiocordyceps sinensis and its host Hepialiae species. The template was genomic DNA extracted from reference material (No. 121201) and subjected to a fivefold serial dilution, resulting in approximately 20,000, 4,000, 800, 160, 32, 6.4, 1.3, 0.25 and 0.05 pg per PCR reaction. The DL2000 DNA Marker was used as the size scale for the target DNA. Sterile water was used as the negative blank control. The simultaneous appearance of the two target bands was considered a positive result and marked “+”. Others marked “−” were negative.
