A sensitive and specific assay was developed to detect bacterial blight of grapevine caused by Xylophilus ampelinus (Panagopoulos, 1969) comb. nov. in grapevine cuttings. The 16S−23S rDNA intergenic spacer region of X. ampelinus was sequenced and pathogen-specific primers were designed from a region in the spacer between the tRNA (Ala) and the 23S genes. A nested PCR (n-PCR) reaction was applied with a first-stage PCR using universal primers within the ends of the 16S and 23S genes, followed by a second-stage PCR with nested primers specific to the X. ampelinus spacer region. A 277-bp fragment was amplified from 38 Xylophilus strains tested, but not from saprophytes associated with grapevine or phylogenetically related phytobacteria. The 277-bp product was shown to be derived from the X. ampelinus spacer region by restriction with Dra I, Sau 3AI, Taq I and Msp I, Southern hybridization and genomic DNA dot blots. When the (n-PCR) procedure was applied in the absence of nontarget DNA, the limit of detection was less than 10 colony-forming units (CFU) per µ L. The same number of  X. ampelinus CFU could be detected in the presence of 1·5 × 105 CFU  µ L−1 of Erwinia herbicola cells using the n-PCR procedure.  相似文献

White root rot, caused by Rosellinia necatrix , is one of the most important diseases in avocado orchards and is particularly widespread on the Mediterranean seaboard of southern Spain. In this study, the presence of the pathogen in soil samples collected from the base of 47 plants showing different symptoms of canopy decline was assessed with a molecular detection method based on real-time Scorpion PCR. Results were compared with symptoms in the canopy and with the traditional method of isolation of R. necatrix from roots and/or bark. The fungus was isolated from 24 samples by the traditional method and from 37 soil samples by the molecular method (cycle threshold values 25·8 to 47·1), demonstrating the higher sensitivity and reliability of the molecular method. A single real-time PCR amplification was sufficient to detect R. necatrix in naturally infested soils. The avoidance of nested PCR has important practical implications because of the reduced costs and risk of cross contamination. Also, it enables faster sample analysis and is more appropriate for quantitative detection. A modified molecular method was also developed to detect R. necatrix in roots and in soils with very low populations of the pathogen.  相似文献

 小麦条锈病是我国小麦生产上的重要病害之一。为高效准确地定量检测处于潜伏侵染阶段的小麦条锈菌,本研究根据已发表的小麦条锈菌和寄主小麦的引物,设计了各自的探针,建立了双重real-time PCR检测方法。为排除多个引物互作造成的干扰,对小麦条锈菌引物探针体系、小麦体系以及二者的双重real-time PCR体系进行了比较。CT值相关线性回归分析证明,引物之间互作很小,对定量检测无影响。已知浓度样品经梯度稀释,进行灵敏度检测,确定了双重real-time PCR对小麦条锈菌DNA和小麦DNA准确定量测定的最小检测限为0.4 pg和0.5 ng。同时建立了小麦条锈菌和小麦各自的标准曲线。用此方法检测来自两个不同地区的田间样本,得到的分子病情指数(MDI)与随后的发病趋势一致。本研究建立的双重real-time PCR分析方法可靠、高效、低误差,是对本实验室已有小麦条锈菌潜伏期分子检测方法的进一步优化。  相似文献

Real-time PCR assays based on SYBR? Green I and TaqMan? technologies were developed for in planta detection and quantification of Phoma tracheiphila, the mitosporic fungus causing ‘mal secco’ disease on citrus. Primers and a hybridization probe were designed on the basis of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region of the nuclear rRNA genes. The real-time PCR assays were compared with a classic isolation method in two separate experiments carried out on 6 and 24 month-old sour orange seedlings, artificially inoculated with a conidial suspension of the pathogen. Both technologies made it possible to follow the progression of infection by P. tracheiphila, enabling detection and quantification of the target fungus prior to the development of symptoms. The detection limit was 10 copies of the cloned target sequence and 15 pg of genomic DNA extracted from fungal spores. The values of the cycle threshold (Ct) were linearly correlated with the concentration of the target DNA, indicating that the method is suitable as a qualitative and quantitative assay. The presence of non-target fungal DNA had no effect on the specificity of the assay, but resulted in a 10-fold reduction of sensitivity. Total inhibition of the reaction occurred when conidia of the target pathogen were mixed with an organic soil substrate before extracting DNA using the standard protocol, while an alternative purification kit resulted in a significant decrease in sensitivity. Compared to classic methods, real-time PCR proved faster and easier to perform and showed a higher sensitivity. These results suggest that real-time PCR, based on both chemistries, has a great potential for early diagnosis of ‘mal secco’ disease and for quantitative estimation of fungal growth within host tissue.  相似文献

Xylophilus ampelinus is listed as a quarantine pest in Annex II/A2 of EU Directive 2000/29. Grapevine cuttings used either as rooting or grafting material represent a primary source of inoculum because of the systemic nature of bacterial colonization. We describe a PCR-based method for the specific detection of X. ampelinus from various plant materials (trunks, woody branches, growing shoots, leaves and bleeding sap), making the detection of X. ampelinus reliable throughout the year. Bacterial cells were extracted by crushing the plant tissues and soaking them in sterile distilled water for 30–120 min at 4 °C. Bacterial cells were harvested by centrifugation at 13 000 g for 10 min through sterile paper discs, and lysed in SDS buffer. DNA was extracted by a silica-based procedure. Specific DNA amplifications were performed with a pair of primers, of which one was labelled with biotin. A digoxygenin-labelled oligonucleotide with a sequence specific for the amplicon was used as the probe. Finally, amplicons were immobilized in microplate wells coated with streptavidine, and hybridization of the digoxygenin-labelled probe was detected with alkaline phosphatase-conjugated antibiodies in a colorimetric assay. This method was sensitive, specific and allowed experiments with high throughput.  相似文献

马铃薯斑纹片病菌(Candidatus Liberibacter solanacearum)是一种主要为害伞形花科和茄科植物的重要有害生物,目前无法人工培养且可随种子远距离传播。准确灵敏的PCR检测方法对病害预警和防止扩散具有重要意义。本文通过复合引物法构建扩增内标(internal amplification control,IAC),建立了马铃薯斑纹片病菌含扩增内标的双重实时荧光PCR检测体系,有效指示了PCR检测过程中的假阴性现象。试验结果表明:双重与单重实时荧光PCR的检测灵敏度一致,当扩增内标添加量为3.4×10-5ng时,样品DNA的检测低限为0.4 ng。40个样品的检测结果显示,与单重实时荧光PCR相比,双重荧光PCR方法的阳性检出率由25.00%提高到27.50%,提高了检测结果的准确性。  相似文献

A new real-time PCR detection system was developed for grapevine yellows (GY) using TaqMan minor groove binder probes and including two amplicons for group-specific detection of Flavescence dorée (FD) and Bois noir (BN) phytoplasmas, plus a universal phytoplasma amplicon. FD and BN amplicons were designed to amplify species-specific genomic DNA fragments and the universal amplicon to amplify the 16S ribosomal DNA region. Efficiency of PCR amplification, limit of detection, range of linearity and dynamic range were assessed for all three amplicons. The specificity of detection systems was tested on several other isolates of phytoplasmas and bacteria and on healthy field grapevine and insect samples. No cross-reactivity with other phytoplasma strains, plant or insect DNA was detected. The assay was compared with conventional PCR on more than 150 field grapevine, insect and field bindweed samples. Real-time PCR showed higher sensitivity as phytoplasmas were detected in several PCR-negative and in all PCR-positive samples. A data-mining analysis of results from both detection approaches also favoured real-time PCR over conventional PCR diagnostics. The developed procedure for detection of phytoplasmas in grapevine also included amplification of plant DNA co-extracted with phytoplasmic DNA, providing additional quality control for the DNA extraction and PCR amplification for each sample. The newly developed assay is a reliable, specific and sensitive method easily applicable to high-throughput diagnosis of GY.  相似文献

利用叠氮溴乙锭(ethidium monoazide bromide,EMA)与实时荧光定量PCR技术相结合(EMA-qPCR),建立了一种有效快速检测猕猴桃溃疡病菌活菌的方法。以猕猴桃溃疡病菌ITS序列为检测靶标,菌体经EMA渗透处理,再进行qPCR特异性扩增。结果显示,qPCR检测灵敏度为2cfu;当EMA的浓度为2.0μg/mL时,能有效抑制1.0×10~7 cfu/mL经高温灭活的死菌的扩增,对活菌的扩增没有影响。当活菌数在1.0×10~1~1.0×10~5 cfu范围内,每个qPCR反应体系中活菌数与Ct值呈线性相关(R~2=0.988)。不同温度处理活菌菌悬液后用EMA-qPCR检测猕猴桃溃疡病菌的存活情况并与平板计数法进行比较,结果表明待检样品可在4℃和20℃短期保存。对疑似带病猕猴桃材料进行EMA-qPCR检测,结果表明能减少猕猴桃溃疡病菌PCR的假阳性结果。本研究建立的EMAqPCR方法是一种有效检测猕猴桃溃疡病菌活菌的方法,能有效避免PCR检测实际样品可能造成的假阳性结果。  相似文献

ABSTRACT This study describes a multiplex real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) approach for the simultaneous detection of Meloidogyne chitwoodi and M. fallax in a single assay. The approach uses three fluorogenic minor groove binding (MGB) TaqMan probes: one FAM-labeled to detect M. chitwoodi, one VIC-labeled to detect M. fallax, and one NED-labeled to detect the internal amplification control (IAC) to monitor false negative results. One common primer set is used for the amplification of part of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region of M. chitwoodi and M. fallax and one primer set for the amplification of the IAC. The test enabled detection of M. chitwoodi and/or M. fallax in DNA samples extracted from batches of juveniles, from single juveniles, and from infected plant material. Compared with current assays to detect M. chitwoodi and M. fallax, the multiplex real-time PCR offers the following advantages: it is faster because the test can simultaneously detect both quarantine species without the need for post-PCR processing; and it is at least 10 times more sensitive than a comparable regular PCR also targeting the ITS sequence. Inclusion of the IAC facilitates the interpretation of the FAM and VIC cycle threshold (Ct) values and can prevent the scoring of false negative results when FAM, VIC, and NED Ct values are high. The test allows precise quantification when only one of the two species is present in the sample. However, experiments with mixtures of genomic DNA of M. chitwoodi and M. fallax revealed that the ability of the multiplex real-time PCR assay to detect small quantities of DNA of one species is reduced when large quantities of DNA of the other species are present.  相似文献

ABSTRACT Root and stem rot caused by Phytophthora sojae is one of the most destructive diseases of soybean (Glycine max) worldwide. P. sojae can survive as oospores in soil for many years. In order to develop a rapid and accurate method for the specific detection of P. sojae in soil, the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions of eight P. sojae isolates were amplified using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with the universal primers DC6 and ITS4. The sequences of PCR products were aligned with published sequences of 50 other Phytophthora species, and a region specific to P. sojae was used to design the specific PCR primers, PS1 and PS2. More than 245 isolates representing 25 species of Phytophthora and at least 35 other species of pathogens were used to test the specificity of the primers. PCR amplification with PS primers resulted in the amplification of a product of approximately 330 bp, exclusively from isolates of P. sojae. Tests with P. sojae genomic DNA determined that the sensitivity of the PS primer set is approximately 1 fg. This PCR assay, combined with a simple soil screening method developed in this work, allowed the detection of P. sojae from soil within 6 h, with a detection sensitivity of two oospores in 20 g of soil. PCR with the PS primers could also be used to detect P. sojae from diseased soybean tissue and residues. Real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR assays were also developed to detect the pathogen directly in soil samples. The PS primer-based PCR assay provides a rapid and sensitive tool for the detection of P. sojae in soil and infected soybean tissue.  相似文献

Fuscoporia torulosa is the causal agent of white alveolar wood decay on several species including a large number of forest trees. Early detection of the fungus is essential to identify diseased trees before spread occurs to healthy plants. However, current detection methods based on isolation from infected tissues on semi-selective media are laborious, time consuming and require expertise in identifying the pathogen after isolation. In the present study, a rapid and reliable Scorpion-PCR based molecular method to identify and detect F. torulosa in planta was developed in a highly polymorphic portion of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions. Specificity of primers and probe was assessed by means of both BLAST analyses and by using genomic DNA from 131 F. torulosa isolates and 43 other fungi and oomycetes from different hosts and geographic areas. In Scorpion-PCR the limit of detection was 1 pg of total DNA and a high correlation ( r 2 = 0·996) was achieved between target DNA quantity and cycle threshold (Ct). Real-time PCR combined with effective procedures for DNA extraction enabled the detection of F. torulosa from naturally infected tissues of oaks with and without fruit bodies in approximately 6 h. Comparative testing showed that detection of F. torulosa in wood samples is more sensitive and reliable with real-time PCR than with conventional isolation.  相似文献

Diseases of solanaceous crops caused by the phloem-limited bacterium ‘Candidatus Liberibacter solanacearum’ (Lso), vectored by the tomato potato psyllid Bactericera cockerelli, pose a major economic threat to crop production. Lso is yet to be cultured and, therefore, effective control strategies depend heavily on the early detection of the pathogen via polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays. In this study, two new assays for the detection of Lso in New Zealand field samples were developed, and compared with previously available assays. Firstly, a single-tube semi-nested gel-based PCR assay was developed for the genus-specific detection of liberibacter species, and shown to provide increased sensitivity over standard and nested PCR. Secondly, a single-tube semi-nested SYBR Green real-time PCR (qPCR) assay was developed for the specific detection of Lso in field samples from New Zealand, with a limit of detection of five copies of the target gene per reaction. Semi-nested qPCR showed similar sensitivity compared with TaqMan qPCR with the primer-probe combination LsoF-HLBpr and was 10- to 50-fold more sensitive than the conventional PCR assays tested. Quantification of titre in Lso-affected tubers by SYBR Green qPCR revealed a positive relationship between pathogen titre and the discolouration of fried tuber slices, a symptom indicative of Lso infection. Quantification of Lso in field samples of potato and tomato also revealed many samples with titres below the limit of detection of conventional PCR. The observation of low-titre samples demonstrated the utility of SYBR Green qPCR for detection of Lso, as in addition to increased sensitivity melt-curve analysis enables confirmation of qPCR data by identifying false positive results.  相似文献

We developed a real-time PCR assay using a TaqMan probe (TM-qPCR) for specific detection and quantification of Phomopsis sclerotioides, causal agent of black root rot of cucurbit crops. The design of the primer sets and hybridization probe was based on the internal transcribed spacer region of the ribosomal DNA. The TM-qPCR assay was compared with a conventional, standard PCR (sPCR) assay and on a quantitative real-time PCR (SG-qPCR) assay based on SYBR Green I. The TM-qPCR assay had a detection limit of ca. 0.4 fg of P. sclerotioides DNA, which was approximately 100 times more sensitive than the sPCR assay and almost equivalent to the SG-qPCR assay. The TM-qPCR and SG-qPCR assays both were able to detect various quantities of P. sclerotioides DNA from diseased plants and infested soils, including DNA levels that were not detectable by the sPCR assay. However, the TM-qPCR was advantageous for samples containing PCR-inhibiting substances because its multiplex real-time PCR function allows the adjustment of cycle threshold values with an internal control. Based on the high specificity and sensitivity required for analyzing DNA in natural samples, the newly developed TM-qPCR assay was the most reliable tool for rapidly detecting and quantifying P. sclerotioides in plant and soil samples.  相似文献

A quantitative RT real-time PCR method was developed for the detection and quantification of Tomato mosaic virus (ToMV) in irrigation waters. These have rarely been monitored for the presence of plant pathogenic viruses, mostly due to the lack of efficient and sensitive detection methods. The newly developed method presented here offers a novel approach in monitoring the health status of environmental waters. ToMV was reliably detected at as low as 12 viral particles per real-time PCR reaction, which corresponds to the initial concentration of approximately 4.2 × 10?10 mg (6,300 viral particles) of ToMV per ml of sample. The sensitivity of the method was further improved by including the Convective Interaction Media® (CIM) monolithic chromatographic columns for quick and efficient concentration of original water samples. Seven out of nine water sources from different locations in Slovenia tested positive for ToMV, after concentrating the sample. Four samples tested ToMV-positive without the concentrating procedure. The presence and integrity of infective ToMV particles in the original sample, as well as in the chromatographic fraction, was confirmed using different methods from test plants, DAS ELISA to electron microscopy and real-time PCR. In this study, we propose a unique and simple diagnostic scheme for rapid, efficient, and sensitive monitoring of irrigation waters that could also be adopted for other plant, human or animal viruses.  相似文献
