However, we could not accurately differentiate these three species as they all amplify the non-<i>B. pseudomallei</i> probe in the 122018 and 266152 assays. Neither TTS1 nor BurkDiff assays amplify <i>B. thailandensis</i>, <i>B. thailandensis-</i>like or <i>B. oklahomensis</i> species, and thus could not be used for species assignment.</p>c<p>Ruled out as being <i>B. pseudomallei</i>, <i>B. thailandensis</i>, <i>B. thailandensis-</i>like, <i>B. oklahomensis</i>, <i>B. vietnamiensis</i> and <i>B. ubonensis</i> but strongly suspected to be <i>Burkholderia</i> spp. due to their amplification using <i>B. vietnamiensis</i> and <i>B. ubonensis</i>-specific assays (Price et al., unpublished data).</p

    <p>Red, the <i>B. pseudomallei-</i>specific TaqMan probe amplifies only <i>B. pseudomallei</i> template; the non-<i>B.pseudomallei</i> TaqMan probe (green) amplifies well with <i>B. thailandensis</i> and <i>B. thailandensis-</i>like species and weakly with <i>B. oklahomensis</i> templates but not <i>B. pseudomallei</i>. Other <i>Burkholderia</i> spp. do not amplify with either probe.</p
