Duplex-RT-PCR assay for the simultaneous detection and discrimination of Brome mosaic virus and Cocksfoot mottle virus in cereal plants.

ABSTRACT: Brome mosaic virus (BMV) and cocksfoot mottle virus (CfMV) are pathogens of grass species including all economically important cereals. Both viruses have been identified in Poland therefore they create a potential risk to cereal crops. In this study, a duplex-reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (duplex-RT-PCR) was developed and optimized for simultaneous detection and differentiation of BMV and CfMV as well as for confirmation of their co-infection. Selected primers CfMVdiag-F/CfMVdiag-R and BMV2-F/BMV2-R amplified 390 bp and 798 bp RT-PCR products within coat protein (CP) region of CfMV and replicase gene of BMV, respectively. Duplex-RT-PCR was successfully applied for the detection of CfMV-P1 and different Polish BMV isolates. Moreover, one sample was found to be co-infected with BMV-ML1 and CfMV-ML1 isolates. The specificity of generated RT-PCR products was verified by sequencing. Duplex-RT-PCR, like conventional RT-PCR, was able to detect two viruses occurring in plant tissues in very low concentration (as low as 4.5 pg/µL of total RNA). In contrast to existing methods, newly developed technique offers a significant time and cost-saving advantage. In conclusion, duplex-RT-PCR is a useful tool which can be implemented by phytosanitary services to rapid detection and differentiation of BMV and CfMV.

Development of a multiplex RT-PCR assay for simultaneous detection of Lily symptomless virus, Lily mottle virus, Cucumber mosaic virus, and Plantago asiatica mosaic virus in Lilies.

Project description:BackgroundViral pathogens causing significant economic losses in lilies (Lilium spp. and hybrids) include Lily symptomless virus (LSV), Lily mottle virus (LMoV), Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV), and Plantago asiatica mosaic virus (PlAMV). Rapid and efficient virus detection methods are pivotal to prevent the spread of these viruses.ResultsIn this study, four specific primer pairs designed from conserved regions of genomic sequences of each virus were used to amplify a 116 bp product for LSV, a 247 bp product for LMoV, a 359 bp product for CMV, and a 525 bp product for PlAMV in a multiplex reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (multiplex RT-PCR). The amplified products were clearly separated by 2% agarose gel electrophoresis. The optimal reaction annealing temperature and cycle number were 53.8 °C and 35, respectively. The developed multiplex RT-PCR method was then used to test virus infections from lily samples collected from different regions of China.ConclusionsAn effective multiplex RT-PCR assay was established for the simultaneous detection and differentiation of LSV, LMoV, CMV, and PlAMV in lilies, which offers a useful tool for routine molecular diagnosis and epidemiological studies of these viruses.

Survey of Cherry necrotic rusty mottle virus and Cherry green ring mottle virus incidence in Korea by Duplex RT-PCR.

Project description:The incidence of Cherry necrotic rusty mottle virus (CNRMV) and Cherry green ring mottle virus (CGRMV) have recently been occurred in Korea, posing a problem for sweet cherry cultivation. Since infected trees have symptomless leaves or ring-like spots on the pericarp, it is difficult to identify a viral infection. In this study, the incidence of CNRMV and CGRMV in sweet cherry in Gyeongbuk province was surveyed using a newly developed duplex reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) method that can detect both viruses in a single reaction. CNRMV and CGRMV co-infection rates were 29.6%, 53.6%, and 17.6%, respectively, in samples collected from three different sites (Daegu, Gyeongju and Gyeongsan) in Gyeongbuk province during 2012 and 2013. This duplex RT-PCR method offers a simple, rapid, and effective way of identifying CNRMV and CGRMV simultaneously in sweet cherry trees, which can aid in the management of viral infections that could undermine yield.

Development of a multiplex RT-PCR assay for simultaneous detection of Cucumber green mottle mosaic virus and Acidovorax citrulli in watermelon.

Project description:Watermelon (Citrullus lanatus Thunb.) is considered as a popular and nutritious fruit crop worldwide. Watermelon blood flesh disease caused by Cucumber green mottle mosaic virus (CGMMV) and bacterial fruit blotch caused by Acidovorax citrulli, are two major quarantine diseases of watermelon and result in considerable losses to global watermelon production. In this study, a multiplex reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) method was developed for simultaneous detection of CGMMV and A. citrulli in both watermelon leaves and seeds. Two pairs of specific primers were designed based on the conserved sequences of the genomic RNA of CGMMV and the internal transcribed spacer of A. citrulli, respectively. Transcriptional elongation factor-1α from watermelon was added as an internal reference gene to prevent false negatives. No cross-reactivity was detected with other viral or bacterial pathogens infecting watermelon. Moreover, the multiplex RT-PCR showed high sensitivity and could simultaneously detect CGMMV and A. citrulli as little as 102 copies of plasmid DNA. This method was successfully applied to test field-collected watermelon leaves and stored seeds of cucurbitaceous crops. These results suggested that the developed multiplex RT-PCR technique is a rapid, efficient, and sensitive method for simultaneous detection of CGMMV and A. citrulli, providing technical support for monitoring, predicting, and preventing these two quarantine diseases. To our knowledge, this is the first report on simultaneous detection of a virus and a bacterium by multiplex RT-PCR in watermelon.

A duplex, SYBR Green I-based RT-qPCR assay for the simultaneous detection of Apple chlorotic leaf spot virus and Cherry green ring mottle virus in peach.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Co-infections of Apple chlorotic leaf spot virus (ACLSV) and Cherry green ring mottle virus (CGRMV) in peach is common in China and have resulted in significant yield reductions. A reliable, sensitive and quantitive method is needed to detect and distinguish between ACLSV and CGRMV in peach. FINDINGS: We developed a sensitive and specific SYBR Green-I based RT-qPCR for the quantification of ACLSV and CGRMV in different peach tissues, and a duplex RT-qPCR system to detect ACLSV and CGRMV simultaneously. The RT-qPCR method was optimized using standard samples transcribed by the T7 Large Scale RNA Production System in vitro. The peach genes, RNA Polymerase subunit II (RPII) and Ubiquitin 10 (UBQ10), which were used as the internal controls for the quantification assay also showed good expression stability in this system. Single RT-qPCR assays showed that CGRMV in peach accumulates to a higher level than ACLSV. The detection limits of the duplex RT-qPCR assay were 10² and 10? copies for ACLSV and CGRMV, respectively. The sensitivity of the duplex RT-qPCR was as high as RT-qPCR and higher than RT-PCR. CONCLUSIONS: The SYBR Green-I RT-qPCR assay provided a sensitive, specific and reliable method for the detection and quantification of ACLSV and CGRMV in different peach tissues. The duplex RT-qPCR system provided a sensitive and specific method to detect and differentiate between ACLSV and CGRMV in a single sample. This RT-qPCR assay could be a useful tool for the routine diagnosis of these two viruses and for disease epidemiology studies in peach orchards.

A cucumber green mottle mosaic virus vector for virus-induced gene silencing in cucurbit plants.

Project description:BackgroundCucurbits produce fruits or vegetables that have great dietary importance and economic significance worldwide. The published genomes of at least 11 cucurbit species are boosting gene mining and novel breeding strategies, however genetic transformation in cucurbits is impractical as a tool for gene function validation due to low transformation efficiency. Virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) is a potential alternative tool. So far, very few ideal VIGS vectors are available for cucurbits.ResultsHere, we describe a new VIGS vector derived from cucumber green mottle mosaic virus (CGMMV), a monopartite virus that infects cucurbits naturally. We show that the CGMMV vector is competent to induce efficient silencing of the phytoene desaturase (PDS) gene in the model plant Nicotiana benthamiana and in cucurbits, including watermelon, melon, cucumber and bottle gourd. Infection with the CGMMV vector harboring PDS sequences of 69-300 bp in length in the form of sense-oriented or hairpin cDNAs resulted in photobleaching phenotypes in N. benthamiana and cucurbits by PDS silencing. Additional results reflect that silencing of the PDS gene could persist for over two months and the silencing effect of CGMMV-based vectors could be passaged.ConclusionsThese results demonstrate that CGMMV vector could serve as a powerful and easy-to-use tool for characterizing gene function, controlling viral pathogens or even performing resistance breeding in cucurbits. Moreover, this study will possess considerable important reference value for developing different viral vectors.

Chemical reactivity of brome mosaic virus capsid protein.

Project description:Viral particles are biological machines that have evolved to package, protect, and deliver the viral genome into the host via regulated conformational changes of virions. We have developed a procedure to modify lysine residues with S-methylthioacetimidate across the pH range from 5.5 to 8.5. Lysine residues that are not completely modified are involved in tertiary or quaternary structural interactions, and their extent of modification can be quantified as a function of pH. This procedure was applied to the pH-dependent structural transitions of brome mosaic virus (BMV). As the reaction pH increases from 5.5 to 8.5, the average number of modified lysine residues in the BMV capsid protein increases from 6 to 12, correlating well with the known pH-dependent swelling behavior of BMV virions. The extent of reaction of each of the capsid protein's lysine residues has been quantified at eight pH values using coupled liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Each lysine can be assigned to one of three structural classes identified by inspection of the BMV virion crystal structure. Several lysine residues display reactivity that indicates their involvement in dynamic interactions that are not obvious in the crystal structure. The influence of several capsid protein mutants on the pH-dependent structural transition of BMV has also been investigated. Mutant H75Q exhibits an altered swelling transition accompanying solution pH increases. The H75Q capsids show increased reactivity at lysine residues 64 and 130, residues distal from the dimer interface occupied by H75, across the entire pH range.

Recombinase Polymerase Amplification Assay for Simultaneous Detection of Maize Chlorotic Mottle Virus and Sugarcane Mosaic Virus in Maize.

Project description:Maize chlorotic mottle virus (MCMV) can cause maize lethal necrosis (MLN) when coinfected with potyvirids, such as sugarcane mosaic virus (SCMV), maize dwarf mosaic virus, or wheat streak mosaic virus. MLN is often caused by coinfection of MCMV and SCMV, which has been reported in China and several countries of Africa. In this study, a recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) assay was established for simultaneous detection of MCMV and SCMV in maize. The RPA assay can be completed within 30 min at 38 °C. The primers for the RPA assay were specific since no crossreaction was detected with other selected viruses that infected maize in China. The detection limit of the RPA method was 102 copies μL-1, which was about 10-fold more sensitive than that of the conventional PCR method. Moreover, the RPA assay can be successfully applied to detect maize samples collected in the field. These results demonstrated that the established RPA assay is a rapid and efficient method to conduct simultaneous detection of MCMV and SCMV, which provides an alternative technology for MLN diagnosis.
