Abstract
The invention provides methods for detecting target nucleic acid sequences with diagnostic primers including priming regions and probe regions which are complementary to target and reference regions respectively on a sample nucleic acid strand wherein the probe region is located 5' to the priming region which is complementary to a reference nucleic acid sequence which is 3' to the target nucleic acid sequence on the sample nucleic acid strand wherein when said reference nucleic acid sequence is contiguous with said target nucleic acid sequence on the sample nucleic acid strand then the priming region and probe region on the diagnostic probe are separated by a spacer region of nucleic acid.
