Lily symptomless virus (LSV) is one of the most prevalent viruses that infect lily plants worldwide. A rapid and sensitive reverse transcription loop-mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP) assay was developed for detection of LSV, using two primer pairs that specifically amplified the conserved sequence of LSV coat protein. The optimum reaction conditions were as follows: 4mM MgCl and 0.8M betaine with incubation at 64°C for 30min. The limit of detection of LSV from infected lily leaves was 10-fold higher for RT-LAMP than for conventional RT-PCR. Moreover, RT-LAMP detected LSV in not only symptomatic, but also in symptomless tissues of infected plants. These findings indicate that our RT-LAMP method for LSV can serve as a low-cost, simple, and rapid alternative to conventional detection assays.
百合无症状病毒(LSV)是全球感染百合植物最普遍的病毒之一。开发了一种快速灵敏的逆转录环介导等温扩增(RT-LAMP)检测方法用于检测LSV,使用两对特异性扩增LSV外壳蛋白保守序列的引物。最佳反应条件如下:4mM MgCl和0.8M甜菜碱,在64°C孵育30分钟。从受感染的百合叶片中检测LSV时,RT-LAMP的检测限比传统RT-PCR高10倍。此外,RT-LAMP不仅能在受感染植物的有症状组织中检测到LSV,还能在无症状组织中检测到。这些结果表明,我们用于检测LSV的RT-LAMP方法可作为一种低成本、简单且快速的传统检测方法的替代方法。
