Abstract
Provided herein are methods, kits, and compositions related to nucleic acid detection assays that allow discrimination of multiple target sequences with a single probe. In particular, provided herein are methods kits, and compositions that include single-probe target sequence discrimination where different target amplicons may have identical probe hybridization sequences by employing multiple temperature end-point signal probe detection. Also provided herein are methods, kits, and compositions for distinguishing between two or more target amplicons using multiple-temperature end-point probe detection. In certain embodiments, asymmetric PCR amplification methods are employed (e.g., LATE-PCR amplification).
