ABSTRACT:
The present invention describes oligonucleotides targeted to Coccidioides immitis nucleic acid sequences which are particularly useful to aid in detecting Coccidioides immitis. The oligonucleotides can aid in detecting Coccidioides immitis in different ways such as by acting as hybridization assay probes, and/or amplification primers.
