Bano H, Khan JA. Development of reverse transcription loop-mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP) for rapid detection of viruses infecting patchouli (Pogostemon cablin). Arch Microbiol 2024; 206:75. [PMID: 38261081 DOI: 10.1007/s00203-023-03798-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/10/2023] [Revised: 12/08/2023] [Accepted: 12/15/2023] [Indexed: 01/24/2024]
Abstract
Patchouli (Pogostemon cablin), a highly valued medicinal plant, suffers significant economic losses following infection with Broad bean wilt virus 2 (BBWV-2) and Peanut stripe virus (PStV). In this study, a field-based isothermal technique called reverse transcription loop-mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP) was established for an early and specific detection of BBWV-2 and PStV. The oligo primers were designed to target the coat protein genes of PStV and BBWV-2. The reaction conditions, such as temperature and time duration, were optimized to 65 °C for 60 min. The LAMP amplicons positive for PStV and BBWV-2 revealed characteristic ladder-type bands following agarose gel electrophoresis. Further, a colorimetric assay using a metal ion-based indicator (Hydroxy-naphthol blue, HNB) was conducted to visualize the amplified products with the naked eye, thus facilitating accessibility to field practices. The assay developed in this study was found to be virus specific, and was 100 times more sensitive than RT-PCR. Thus, the RT-LAMP assay established in this study is quick, reliable, and cost-effective for the accurate identification of BBWV-2 and PStV. It will facilitate the screening of patchouli planting materials. Further, it may reduce the risk of virus spread and could be helpful in phytosanitary programs.

Tobacco Mosaic Virus Infection of Chrysanthemums in Thailand: Development of Colorimetric Reverse-Transcription Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification (RT–LAMP) Technique for Sensitive and Rapid Detection. PLANTS 2022; 11:plants11141788.

Abstract
We detected tobacco mosaic virus (TMV), a member of the genus Tobamovirus and one of the most significant plant-infecting viruses, for the first time in a chrysanthemum in Thailand using reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT–PCR). The TMV-infected chrysanthemum leaves exhibited mosaic symptoms. We conducted a sequence analysis of the coat protein (CP) gene and found that the TMV detected in the chrysanthemum had 98% identity with other TMV isolates in GenBank. We carried out bioassays and showed that TMV induced mosaic and stunting symptoms in inoculated chrysanthemums. We observed the rigid rod structure of TMV under a transmission electron microscope (TEM). To enhance the speed and sensitivity of detection, we developed a colorimetric RT loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) technique. We achieved LAMP detection after 30 min incubation in isothermal conditions at 65 °C, and distinguished the positive results according to the color change from pink to yellow. The sensitivity of the LAMP technique was 1000-fold greater than that of RT–PCR, and we found no cross-reactivity with other viruses or viroids. This is the first reported case of a TMV-infected chrysanthemum in Thailand, and our colorimetric RT–LAMP TMV detection method is the first of its kind.

Abstract
In the present study, two isothermal molecular assays viz. reverse transcriptase loop-mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP) and reverse transcriptase recombinase amplification (RT-RPA) were developed to detect the cardamom vein clearing virus (CdVCV) infecting cardamom. Assays were optimized for parameters like duration, temperature and concentration of magnesium sulfate, and betaine in the case of RT-LAMP and magnesium acetate in the case of RT-RPA. Detection limits of both assays were determined and compared with conventional RT-PCR and SYBR Green-based real-time RT-PCR. RT-LAMP was found 10,000 times additional sensitive than RT-PCR and one-tenth that of real-time RT-PCR. RT-RPA was found 1000 times additional sensitive than RT-PCR and one-hundredth that of real-time RT-PCR. Both assays were specific, rapid, and sensitive for detecting CdVCV. Compared to real-time RT-PCR, these assays are economical and can be employed in large scale screening of cardamom plants against CdVCV for the selection of virus-free plants.

Int J Mol Sci 2020; 21:ijms21051756. [PMID: 32143404 PMCID: PMC7084362 DOI: 10.3390/ijms21051756] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/14/2020] [Revised: 02/28/2020] [Accepted: 03/02/2020] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
A loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assay was developed for simple, rapid and efficient detection of Cucurbit leaf crumple virus (CuLCrV), one of the most important begomoviruses that infects cucurbits worldwide. A set of six specific primers targeting a total 240 nt sequence regions in the DNA A of CuLCrV were designed and synthesized for detection of CuLCrV from infected leaf tissues using real-time LAMP amplification with the Genie® III system, which was further confirmed by gel electrophoresis and SYBR™ Green I DNA staining for visual observation. The optimum reaction temperature and time were determined, and no cross-reactivity was seen with other begomoviruses. The LAMP assay could amplify CuLCrV from a mixed virus assay. The sensitivity assay demonstrated that the LAMP reaction was more sensitive than conventional PCR, but less sensitive than qPCR. However, it was simpler and faster than the other assays evaluated. The LAMP assay also amplified CuLCrV-infected symptomatic and asymptomatic samples more efficiently than PCR. Successful LAMP amplification was observed in mixed virus-infected field samples. This simple, rapid, and sensitive method has the capacity to detect CuLCrV in samples collected in the field and is therefore suitable for early detection of the disease to reduce the risk of epidemics.

Abstract
Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) is damaging to the growth and quality of lettuce crops in Lanzhou, China. Recently, however, for the first time an isolate of lettuce necrotic yellows virus (LNYV) has been detected in lettuce crops in China, and there is concern that this virus may also pose a threat to lettuce production in China. Consequently, there is a need to develop a rapid and efficient detection method to accurately identify LNYV and CMV infections and help limit their spread. Reverse transcription loop-mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP) assays were developed to detect the nucleoprotein (N) and coat protein (CP) genes of LNYV and CMV, respectively. RT-LAMP amplification products were visually assessed in reaction tubes separately using green fluorescence and gel electrophoresis. The assays successfully detected both viruses in infected plants without cross reactivity recorded from either CMV or LNYV or four other related plant viruses. Optimum LAMP reactions were conducted in betaine-free media with 6 mM Mg2+ at 65°C for LNYV and 60°C for 60 min for CMV, respectively. The detection limit was 3.5 pg/ml and 20 fg/ml using RT-LAMP for LNYV and CMV plasmids, respectively. Detection sensitivity for both RT-LAMP assays was greater by a factor of 100 compared to the conventional reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction assays. This rapid, specific, and sensitive technique should be more widely applied due to its low cost and minimal equipment requirements.

Abstract
Cucumber green mottle mosaic virus (CGMMV), an emerging tobamovirus, has caused serious disease outbreaks to cucurbit crops in several countries, including the United States. Although CGMMV is seed-borne, the mechanism of its transmission from a contaminated seed to germinating seedling is still not fully understood, and the most suitable seed health assay method has not been well established. To evaluate the mechanism of seed transmissibility, using highly contaminated watermelon seeds collected from CGMMV-infected experimental plants, bioassays were conducted in a greenhouse through seedling grow-out and by mechanical inoculation. Through natural seedling grow-out, we did not observe seed transmission of CGMMV to germinating seedlings. However, efficient transmission of CGMMV was observed using bioassays on melon plants through mechanical inoculation of seed extract prepared from CGMMV-contaminated seeds. Understanding the seed-borne property and the ease of mechanical transmission of CGMMV from a contaminated seed to seedling is an important finding. In comparative evaluation of various laboratory techniques for seed health assays, we found that enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and loop-mediated isothermal amplification were the most sensitive and reliable methods to detect CGMMV on cucurbit seeds. Because CGMMV is a seed-borne and highly contagious virus, a new infection might not result in a natural seedling grow-out; it could occur through mechanical transmission from contaminated seeds. Therefore, a sensitive seed health test is necessary to ensure CGMMV-free seed lots are used for planting.

Abstract
Milk vetch dwarf virus (MDV) is a member of the genus Nanovirus, and its genome is composed of multiple circular 1-kb ssDNA components. In this study, we first determined that the diseased tobacco samples obtained in Zhucheng, Shandong Province were naturally infected with MDV using a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay. Subsequently, loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) was developed for the detection of MDV for the first time. The Mg2+ and dNTP concentrations and the reaction temperature and time of the LAMP were optimized to 8 mM, 1.8 mM, 65 °C, and 60 min, respectively. The best ratio of the inner primers (FIP and BIP) to the outer primers (F3 and B3) was 2:1. The LAMP detection limit was 100 times greater than that of PCR. The nucleotide amplification could be clearly observed by adding SYBR Green I. The positive and negative reactions exhibit distinctly different colors in daylight; however, the positive reactions exhibit green fluorescence under a UV lamp. Therefore, the method is stable, sensitive and specific.

Abstract
Tomato chlorotic spot orthotospovirus (TCSV) is an emerging orthotospovirus that can cause severe disease on tomato plants. There are at least four orthotospoviruses infecting tomato, and mixed infection of two or more orthotospoviruses in a single tomato plant is quite common in the field. With similarity in the symptomatology and cross serological reactivity among tomato-infecting orthotospoviruses, especially between TCSV and groundnut ringspot orthotospovirus (GRSV), the current serological tests could not achieve definite and accurate species-specific determination in disease diagnosis. Here, a one-step reverse transcription loop-mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP) assay was developed for TCSV. Under optimum conditions, the virus was detected in as little as 0.2 ng of total RNA or in 1:10,000 dilution of a simple diluted tissue extract, which was ten times more sensitive than a conventional RT-PCR assay. The RT-LAMP assay was highly specific for TCSV, with no cross reaction with the other two orthotospoviruses: GRSV and tomato spotted wilt orthotospovirus (TSWV). These results demonstrate that this simple and sensitive RT-LAMP could be used to achieve species-specific detection for TCSV under field conditions.

Abstract
A reverse transcription loop-mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP) assay was developed for the detection of Apple chlorotic leaf spot virus (ACLSV) and Apple stem pitting virus (ASPV), two important viruses frequently occurring in pear trees. A set of four RT-LAMP primers designed based on the highly conserved region of each CP gene of the two viruses showed high specificity and feasibility for ACLSV and ASPV detections. The RT-LAMP assays for ACLSV and ASPV in pear samples were 104 and 103 times more sensitive than that of conventional RT-PCR assays. The RT-LAMP under optimal reaction condition was subsequently utilized in the detection of the two viruses in-vitro cultures of pear and field pear samples. This study provides a rapid and sensitive tool to determine the infection statues of the two viruses in pear certification program.

Abstract
Lily mottle virus (LMoV; genus Potyvirus, family Potyviridae) infects plants of the genus Lilium, causing a reduction in flower and bulb quality. A rapid and sensitive loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assay was developed to detect the coat protein gene of LMoV. This LAMP method was highly specific for LMoV, with no cross-reaction with other lily viruses. The sensitivity of LMoV using the LAMP assay was 100 times more sensitive than that using conventional polymerase chain reaction. A reverse transcription LAMP (RT-LAMP) was then successfully applied to detect LMoV RNA. The newly established LAMP and one-step RT-LAMP provide an alternative method for detecting LMoV in lily plants.

Abstract
Chilli veinal mottle virus (ChiVMV) causes significant economic loss to chilli cultivation in northeastern India, as well as in eastern Asia. In this study, we have developed a single-tube one-step reverse transcription loop-mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP) assay for rapid, sensitive and specific diagnosis of ChiVMV. Amplification could be visualized after adding SYBR Green I (1000×) dye within 60 min under isothermal conditions at 63 °C, with a set of four primers designed based on the large nuclear inclusion protein (NIb) domain of ChiVMV (isolate KC-ML1). The RT-LAMP method was 100 times more sensitive than one-step reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), with a detection limit of 0.0001 ng of total RNA per reaction.

Abstract
Dasheen mosaic virus (DsMV), the pathogen causing mosaic disease of elephant foot yam (Amorphophallus paeoniifoilius) is disseminated mainly through vegetative propagation of the tubers. For the rapid and sensitive detection of the virus, a reverse transcription loop-mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP) assay based on the coat protein gene has been developed. A final concentration of 5.4 mM magnesium sulphate and 0.7 M betaine in the reaction mixture was found to be optimum for getting characteristic ladder like bands of the amplified product after gel electrophoresis. The reaction was set at 65°C for 50 min followed by reaction termination at 86°C for 5 min in a water bath. The sensitivity of the assay was found to be 100 times higher than that of RT-PCR. The virus was indexed successfully from tubers of elephant foot yam. In tube detection of the DsMV was carried out using fluorescence detection reagents. The assay was validated with field samples from various regions of Kerala state, India.

Abstract
Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) causes significant yield loss in susceptible crops irrigated with contaminated water. However, detection of TMV in water is difficult owing to extremely low concentrations of the virus. Here, we developed a simple method for the detection and quantification of TMV in irrigation water. TMV was reliably detected at concentrations as low as 10 viral copies/μL with real-time PCR. The sensitivity of detection was further improved using polyethylene glycol 6000 (PEG6000, MW 6000) to concentrate TMV from water samples. Among the 28 samples from Shaanxi Province examined with our method, 17 were tested positive after virus concentration. Infectivity of TMV in the original water sample as well as after concentration was confirmed using PCR. The limiting concentration of TMV in water to re-infect plants was determined as 10(2) viral copies/mL. The method developed in this study offers a novel approach to detect TMV in irrigation water, and may provide an effective tool to control crop infection.

Abstract
Most of the diseases caused by viral infection are found to be fatal, and the diagnosis is difficult due to confusion with other causative agents. So, a highly efficient molecular-based advance detection technique, i.e., loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) method, is developed for diagnosis of viral infections by various workers. It is based on amplification of DNA at very low level under isothermal conditions, using a set of four specifically designed primers and a DNA polymerase with strand displacement activity. This technique is found to be superior than most of the molecular techniques like PCR, RT-PCR, and real-time PCR due to its high specificity, sensitivity, and rapidity. Major advantage of LAMP method is its cost-effectiveness as it can be done simply by using water bath or dry bath. Here, in this review information regarding almost all the effective LAMP techniques which is developed so far for diagnosis of numerous viral pathogens is presented.

Abstract
Grapevine leafroll disease (GLD) is the most important disease of Grapevines in South Africa. Grapevine leafroll-associated virus type 3 (GLRaV-3) has a close association with the disease and is prevalent in South African vineyards. GLD can be controlled using a combination of virus-free planting material, systemic insecticides to control vector populations and removal of infected vines by roguing. Infected vines are identified each autumn using either symptom display (in red cultivars) or ELISA (in white cultivars). While ELISA is a simple, reliable means of testing for GLRaV-3, it is time consuming, laborious and insensitive and a quicker, more sensitive method of detecting GLRaV-3 in the field is needed. A single-tube one-step reverse transcription (RT) loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assay combined with a simple RNA extraction protocol was developed for the rapid and easy detection of GLRaV-3. Hydroxy napthol blue was included as an indicator and under isothermal conditions at 60 °C the target viral gene could be amplified in under 2h and positive results could be easily seen by examining the colour change from violet to sky blue. Using this method, 50 samples could be also pooled together with a single positive sample still being detected. A direct comparison of ELISA, nested PCR and RT-LAMP showed that RT-LAMP is as sensitive as nested PCR and could be performed in a much shorter time with less equipment. This assay is may be a possible alternative to ELISA for the detection of GLRaV-3 in the field.

Abstract
The loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assay for Piper yellow mottle virus and the reverse transcription (RT) LAMP assay for Cucumber mosaic virus each consisted of a set of five primers designed against the conserved sequences in the viral genome. Both RNA and DNA isolated from black pepper were used as a template for the assay. The results were assessed visually by checking turbidity, green fluorescence and pellet formation in the reaction tube and also by gel electrophoresis. The assay successfully detected both viruses in infected plants whereas no cross-reactions were recorded with healthy plants. Optimum conditions for successful amplification were determined in terms of the concentrations of magnesium sulphate and betaine, temperature, and duration. The detection limit for both LAMP and RT-LAMP was up to 100 times that for conventional PCR and up to one-hundredth of that for real-time PCR. The optimal conditions arrived at were validated by testing field samples of infected vines of three species from different regions.

Abstract
Tobacco viruses including Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV), Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV), Tobacco etch virus (TEV), Potato virus Y (PVY) and Tobacco vein banding mosaic virus (TVBMV) are major viruses infecting tobacco and can cause serious crop losses. A multiplex reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction assay was developed to detect simultaneously and differentiate all five viruses. The system used specific primer sets for each virus producing five distinct fragments 237, 273, 347, 456 and 547 bp, representing TMV, CMV subgroup I, TEV, PVY(O) and TVBMV, respectively. These primers were used for detection of the different viruses by single PCR and multiplex PCR and the results were confirmed by DNA sequencing analysis. The protocol was used to detect viruses from different parts of China. The simultaneous and sensitive detection of different viruses using the multiplex PCR is more efficient and economical than other conventional methods for tobacco virus detection. This multiplex PCR provides a rapid and reliable method for the detection and identification of major tobacco viruses, and will be useful for epidemiological studies.
