Abstract: To establishment a TaqMan Real-time PCR method for detection of duck poxvirus (DPV),we cloned the P4b gene of DPV.The specific primers and probe were designed according to the nucleotide sequence of avipoxvirus available in GenBank.Recombinant plasmid pMD-DPV-P4b was employed as positive standard template for Real-time PCR.By optimization of reaction conditions,a TaqMan Real-time PCR method for detection of DPV was established.The results of specificity test proved this method had no cross-react with other waterfowl vial agents and poxviruses including avian influenza virus,duck flavivirus,duck hepatitis virus,Newcastle disease virus,duck entertitis virus,goose parvovirus,goatpox virus and fowlpox virus.The detection limit of the assay was 1.29×102 copies/μL of viral DNA,which was 100 times higher than that of the routine PCR.Reproducibility test showed that the CVs of intra assay and inter assay were both less than 2%.Above results supported that the assay was suitable for the detection of DPV very well.
