The current study was conducted to statistically compare the SYBR® Green quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) assay and the conventional plate counting (PC) method to construct growth curves of a cocktail of Weissella viridescens in pure culture under different isothermal storage conditions (4, 8, 14, and 30 °C) and in mixed culture with Leuconostoc mesenteroides at 8 °C. The efficiency and specificity of the qPCR standard curves were confirmed, and both methods were adequate to quantify the growth kinetics of W. viridescens at all isothermal temperatures, demonstrating a good correlation and agreement. The efficiencies of the standard curves varied between 98% and 102%. The SYBR® Green qPCR assay was also able to differentiate the growth curves of W. viridescens and L. mesenteroides in the mixed culture at 8 °C. Additionally, the SYBR® Green qPCR method was considered a faster and more sensitive alternative to construct growth curves under different isothermal conditions and differentiate morphologically similar lactic acid bacteria. Overall, the results suggest that the SYBR® Green qPCR method is a reliable and efficient tool to study microbial growth kinetics in pure and mixed cultures. •The recN primer pair demonstrated selective detection of W. viridescens.•Standard curves of W. viridescens cocktail had adequate efficiency values.•LoD values were suitable for W. viridescens quantification at 4, 8, 14, and 30 °C.•SYBR® Green qPCR and PC methods showed good correlation and agreement.•SYBR® Green qPCR method distinguished the growth curves of LAB in mixed culture.
