Abstract
Methods and kits for efficient amplification of nucleic acids are provided. The disclosure generally relates to methods and kits for nucleic acid amplification of target nucleic acids of interest. The methods described herein promote the synthesis of the target nucleic acid (i.e., template nucleic acid) by reducing the production of undesirable primer-dimer structures and chimeric nucleic acid products during the amplification process by using novel modified primers.
