Digital PCR-based methods, such as droplet digital PCR, are one of the best tools for determination of absolute nucleic-acid copy numbers. These techniques avoid the need for reference materials with known target concentrations. Compared to real-time PCR, they provide higher accuracy of quantification at low target concentrations, and have higher resilience to inhibitors. In this Chapter, we describe the droplet digital PCR workflow for the detection and quantification of flavescence dorée phytoplasma.
