1. An oligonucleotide conjugate having the formula FL-ODN-Qwhere ODN is an oligonucleotide or nucleic acid;

  • FL is a fluorophore moiety covalently attached to the ODN through a linker having the length of 0 to approximately 30 atoms, and Q is a quencher moiety covalently attached to the ODN through a linker having the length of 0 to approximately 30 atoms, the quencher moiety having the structure where R0, R1, R2, R3 and R4 are independently —

    H, halogen, —

    O(CH2)nCH3, —

    (CH2)nCH3 where n=0 to 5, —

    NO2, —

    SO3, —

    N[(CH2)n′

    ,CH3]2 where n′

    =0 to 5 or —

    CN, and R5=—

    H or —

    (CH2)n′

    CH3 where n″

    =0 to 5, and where the quencher moiety is attached to the linker through the valence bond designated a.
