*Melt-MAMA, melt–mismatch amplification mutation assay; SNP, single nucleotide polymporphism; canSNP, canonical SNP; con, concentration, μmol/L; temp, annealing temperature, °C; NA, not applicable; der, derived SNP state; anc, ancestral SNP state; D, derived allele primer; A, ancestral allele primer; C, common primer.
†Genomic position in reference A.I SchuS4 strain (GenBank accession no. NC_006570).
‡SNP states are listed according to their orientation in the SCHU S4 reference genome (GenBank accession no. AJ749949.2).
§Melt-MAMA primer sequences; primer tails and antepenultimate mismatch bases are in lower case.
¶Final concentration of each primer in Melt-MAMA genotyping assays.
#Assay annealing temperature.
**Assay designed on the reverse complement.
††SNP from (6).
‡‡Assay supplemented with 0.025 U of Platinum Taq DNA polymerase (Life Technologies, Invitrogen, Frederick, MD, USA).
§§SNP from (7).
