Abstract
Watermelon silver mottle virus (WSMoV), a potentially invasive virus, is known to reduce the yield and degrade the quality of infected crops in Cucurbitaceae and Solanaceae families, resulting in significant economic losses in limited areas of several Asian countries. WSMoV, previously detected on various crops in southern China, has now become more prevalent on watermelon and sweet pepper in the northern cities of China for the first time. A sequencing-based phylogenetic analysis has confirmed that the viral strains infecting cucumber, watermelon, and sweet pepper plants in Shandong Province are most closely related to those isolated from Guangdong, Guangxi, and Taiwan, suggesting a farther and continuous spread of WSMoV throughout China. To develop a fast, accurate, and practical protocol for WSMoV detection, we designed a set of primers from the conserved sequence of the WSMoV nucleocapsid protein (N) gene for a one-step assay based on reverse transcription loop-mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP). The RT-LAMP assay was performed successfully for 50 min at 61°C and exhibited a highly specific result without cross-reactions with other similar viruses and a sensitivity that is 100-fold higher than that of the traditional RT-PCR. The confirmation of 26 WSMoV suspect samples collected from various regions in Shandong through the RT-LAMP testing has demonstrated that the assay is suitable and practical for detection of WSMoV in both laboratory and field settings.

Food Res Int 2022; 156:111138. [PMID: 35651010 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2022.111138] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/08/2021] [Revised: 03/10/2022] [Accepted: 03/11/2022] [Indexed: 11/15/2022]
Abstract
The fruit nutrigenomics is an interesting and important research area towards nutrition enhancement. The phytic acid is one of the major antinutrient compound, present in seeded fruits and crops. It hinders the absorption of iron (Fe), zinc (Zn), magnesium (Mg), potassium (K) and calcium (Ca), causing mineral deficiencies. In the present study, the BsPhy gene was overexpressed in the cucumber fruits using the tomato fruit specific E8 and constitutive CaMV 35S promoter. The E8 promoter imparted heterologous expression of GUS gene in cucumber fruits, furthermore, the fruit specific expression of E8 promoter with BsPhy gene was confirmed in transgenics (E8::BsPhy) using anti rabbit-phytase antibody. The physio-biochemical analysis of transgenics revealed, maximum phytase activity in E8::BsPhy cucumber fruits at 10 days after anthesis (DAA) compared to 35S::BsPhy and wild-type (WT) fruits. Consequently, E8::BsPhy fruits also showed increased amount of inorganic phosphorus (Pi), total phosphorus (P), minerals (Zn, Fe, Mg, K, Ca), total carotenoid and other macronutrients at 10 DAA compared to 35S::BsPhy fruits. The metabolite profiling of fruits (10 DAA) showed increased sugars, amino acids, sugar acids and polyols, in both E8::BsPhy and 35S::BsPhy transgenics suggesting higher phytate metabolism, compared to WT fruits. Interestingly, both the transgenic fruits showed higher fruit biomass and yield along with improved nutritional quality, which can be attributed to increased P and Zn contents in transgenic fruits, compared to WT fruits. Our findings reveal that the BsPhy gene enhances minerals and macronutrients in transgenic cucumber fruits making it nutritious and healthy.

Abstract
Molecular diagnosis, which plays a major role in infectious disease screening with successful understanding of the human genome, has attracted more attention because of the outbreak of COVID-19 recently. Since point-of-care testing (POCT) can expand the application of molecular diagnosis with the benefit of rapid reply, low cost, and working in decentralized environments, many researchers and commercial institutions have dedicated tremendous effort and enthusiasm to POCT-based biosensing for molecular diagnosis. In this review, we firstly summarize the state-of-the-art techniques and the construction of biosensing systems for POC molecular diagnosis. Then, the application scenarios of POCT-based biosensing for molecular diagnosis were also reviewed. Finally, several challenges and perspectives of POC biosensing for molecular diagnosis are discussed. This review is expected to help researchers deepen comprehension and make progresses in POCT-based biosensing field for molecular diagnosis applications.

Abstract
In this study, we aim to develop a novel loop mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) coupled with TaqMan (LAMP-TaqMan) method for quick qualitative detection of genetically modified organism (GMOs). We designed four LAMP primers and one TaqMan probe for the LAMP-TaqMan detection method to detect the nopaline synthase gene (NOS) terminator in GMOs. This assay enabled the amplification of DNA within ~20 min at a constant temperature of 65 °C. This assay detected as few as five copies of target sequences, which had a high specificity similar to the TaqMan qPCR method. Furthermore, the LAMP-TaqMan detection method was successfully used to amplify and detect DNA from food samples of the major crops (soybean, maize, rice, etc.). In summary, a novel LAMP-TaqMan assay has been developed, which has the similar sensitivity but takes less time than the TaqMan qPCR method. This method offers a novel approach for rapid detection of GMOs in foods.

Abstract
Existing methods of detecting foreign genes and their expression products from genetically modified organisms (GMOs) suffer from the requirement of professional equipment and skillful operators. The same problem stays for the CRISPR-Cas12a system, although it has been emerging as a powerful tool for nucleic acid detection due to its remarkable sensitivity and specificity. In this report, a portable platform for the visible detection of GMOs based on CRISPR-Cas12a was established, which relies on a color change of gold nanorods (GNRs) caused by the invertase-glucose oxidase cascade reaction and the Fenton reaction for signal readout. A nopaline synthase (NOS) terminator was employed as a model target commonly existing in foreign genes of GMOs. With the help of recombinase-aided amplification, this platform achieved comparable sensitivity of DNA targets (1 aM) with that of a fluorescence reporting assay. As low as 0.1 wt % genetically modified (GM) content in Bt-11 maize was visually observed by unaided eyes, and the semiquantitation of GM ingredients can be obtained within the range of 0.1 to 40 wt % through the absorption measurement of GNRs. Furthermore, five real samples were tested by our method, and the results indicated that the GM ingredient percentages of GMO samples were 2.24 and 24.08 wt %, respectively, while the other three samples were GMO-free. With the advantages of a simple procedure, no need for large or professional instruments, high sensitivity, and selectivity, this platform is expected to provide reasonable technical support for the safe supervision of GMOs.

Abstract
Nucleic acid-based techniques could achieve highly sensitive detection by amplifying template molecules to millions of folds. It has been one of the most valued analytical methods and is applied in many detection fields, such as diagnosis of infectious diseases, food safety assurance and so on. Nucleic acid-based techniques consist of three steps: nucleic acid extraction, amplification, and product detection. Among them, the detection step plays a vital role because it shows the results directly. As the trend of detection is simple, rapid and instrument-free, it is of necessity to carry out visual detection, where the result read-out could be visible and distinguished by the naked eye. In this critical review, advanced visual detection methods are summarized and discussed in detail, aiming to promote the potential application in on-site detection.

Abstract
We developed a novel loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP)-based detection method using lateral flow dipstick chromatography for genetically modified (GM) soybean and maize events. The single-stranded tag hybridization (STH) for the chromatography printed-array strip (C-PAS) system was used for detections targeting the cauliflower mosaic virus 35S promoter, mannose-6-phosphate isomerase gene, Pisum sativum ribulose 1, 5-bisphosphate carboxylase terminator, a common sequence between the Cry1Ab and Cry1Ac genes, and a GA21-specific sequence. The STH C-PAS system was applicable for multiplex analyses to perform simultaneous detections. The limit of detection was 0.5% or less for each target. By using the developed method, the LAMP amplification was visually detected. Moreover, the detection could be carried out without any expensive instruments, even for the DNA amplification steps, by virtue of the isothermal reaction. We demonstrated that the rapid and useful method developed here would be applicable for screening GM crops.

Abstract
We developed new loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP)-based detection methods for the screening of genetically modified (GM) maize and soybean events. The LAMP methods developed targeted seven sequences: cauliflower mosaic virus 35S promoter; 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase gene from Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain CP4 (cp4epsps); phosphinothricin acetyltransferase (pat) gene; mannose-6-phosphate isomerase gene; Pisum sativum ribulose 1, 5-bisphosphate carboxylase terminator; a common sequence between Cry1Ab and Cry1Ac genes; and a GA21 construct-specific sequence. We designed new specific primer sets for each target, and the limit of detection (LOD) was evaluated using authorized GM maize and soybean events. LODs for each target were ≤ 0.5%. To make the DNA extraction process simple and rapid, we also developed a direct LAMP detection scheme using crude cell lysates. The entire process, including pretreatments and detection, could be completed within 1 h.

Abstract
The number of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) on the market is steadily increasing. Because of regulation of cultivation and trade of GMOs in several countries, there is pressure for their accurate detection and quantification. Today, DNA-based approaches are more popular for this purpose than protein-based methods, and real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) is still the gold standard in GMO analytics. However, digital PCR (dPCR) offers several advantages over qPCR, making this new technique appealing also for GMO analysis. This critical review focuses on the use of dPCR for the purpose of GMO quantification and addresses parameters which are important for achieving accurate and reliable results, such as the quality and purity of DNA and reaction optimization. Three critical factors are explored and discussed in more depth: correct classification of partitions as positive, correctly determined partition volume, and dilution factor. This review could serve as a guide for all laboratories implementing dPCR. Most of the parameters discussed are applicable to fields other than purely GMO testing. Graphical abstract There are generally three different options for absolute quantification of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) using digital PCR: droplet- or chamber-based and droplets in chambers. All have in common the distribution of reaction mixture into several partitions, which are all subjected to PCR and scored at the end-point as positive or negative. Based on these results GMO content can be calculated.

Abstract
Skates and rays are commercially important fish in South Korea, and among them, Beringraja pulchra has the highest economic value. However, the similar morphological traits among skates and rays are often exploited for seafood fraud. Here, we designed both Beringraja pulchra-specific and skate-universal primer sets, capable of detecting short sequences in the cytochrome oxidase subunit I gene, and developed highly sensitive and reliable quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) assays to differentiate between Beringraja pulchra and other skate and ray species. AΔCq method based on differences in the amplification efficiency was developed, validated, and then used to confirm the presence of Beringraja pulchra in twenty-six commercial skate products. The averageΔCq value obtained for other skate species (18.94 ± 3.46) was significantly higher than that of Beringraja pulchra (1.18 ± 0.15). For on-site applications, we developed an ultra-fast qPCR assay, allowing for completion of the entire analytical procedure within 30 min.

Abstract
Shigella is an important human food-borne zoonosis bacterial pathogen, and can cause clinically severe diarrhea. There is an urgent need to develop a specific, sensitive, and rapid methodology for detection of this pathogen. In this study, loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) combined with magnetic immunocapture assay (IC-LAMP) was first developed for the detection of Shigella in pure culture, artificial milk, and clinical stool samples. This method exhibited a detection limit of 8.7 CFU/mL. Compared with polymerase chain reaction, IC-LAMP is sensitive, specific, and reliable for monitoring Shigella. Additionally, IC-LAMP is more convenient, efficient, and rapid than ordinary LAMP, as it is more efficiently enriches pathogen cells without extraction of genomic DNA. Under isothermal conditions, the amplification curves and the green fluorescence were detected within 30 min in the presence of genomic DNA template. The overall analysis time was approximately 1 h, including the enrichment and lysis of the bacterial cells, a significantly short detection time. Therefore, the IC-LAMP methodology described here is potentially useful for the efficient detection of Shigella in various samples.

Abstract
As long as the genetically modified crops are gaining attention globally, their proper approval and commercialization need accurate and reliable diagnostic methods for the transgenic content. These diagnostic techniques are mainly divided into two major groups, i.e., identification of transgenic (1) DNA and (2) proteins from GMOs and their products. Conventional methods such as PCR (polymerase chain reaction) and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) were routinely employed for DNA and protein based quantification respectively. Although, these Techniques (PCR and ELISA) are considered as significantly convenient and productive, but there is need for more advance technologies that allow for high throughput detection and the quantification of GM event as the production of more complex GMO is increasing day by day. Therefore, recent approaches like microarray, capillary gel electrophoresis, digital PCR and next generation sequencing are more promising due to their accuracy and precise detection of transgenic contents. The present article is a brief comparative study of all such detection techniques on the basis of their advent, feasibility, accuracy, and cost effectiveness. However, these emerging technologies have a lot to do with detection of a specific event, contamination of different events and determination of fusion as well as stacked gene protein are the critical issues to be addressed in future.

Abstract
Correct identification of medicinal plant ingredients is essential for their safe use and for the regulation of herbal drug supply chain. Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) is a recently developed approach to identify herbal medicine species. This novel molecular biology technique enables timely and accurate testing, especially in settings where infrastructures to support polymerase chain reaction facilities are lacking. Studies that used this method have altered our view on the extent and complexity of herbal medicine identification. In this review, we give an introduction into LAMP analysis, covers the basic principles and important aspects in the development of LAMP analysis method. Then we presented a critical review of the application of LAMP-based methods in detecting and identifying raw medicinal plant materials and their processed products. We also provide a practical standard operating procedure (SOP) for the utilization of the LAMP protocol in herbal authentication, and consider the prospects of LAMP technology in the future developments of herbal medicine identification and the challenges associated with its application.

Abstract
Fungi interact with plants in various ways, with each interaction giving rise to different alterations in both partners. While fungal pathogens have detrimental effects on plant physiology, mutualistic fungi augment host defence responses to pathogens and/or improve plant nutrient uptake. Tropic growth towards plant roots or stomata, mediated by chemical and topographical signals, has been described for several fungi, with evidence of species-specific signals and sensing mechanisms. Fungal partners secrete bioactive molecules such as small peptide effectors, enzymes and secondary metabolites which facilitate colonization and contribute to both symbiotic and pathogenic relationships. There has been tremendous advancement in fungal molecular biology, omics sciences and microscopy in recent years, opening up new possibilities for the identification of key molecular mechanisms in plant-fungal interactions, the power of which is often borne out in their combination. Our fragmentary knowledge on the interactions between plants and fungi must be made whole to understand the potential of fungi in preventing plant diseases, improving plant productivity and understanding ecosystem stability. Here, we review innovative methods and the associated new insights into plant-fungal interactions.

Abstract
Genetically modified (GM) crops are a major product of the global food industry. From 1996 to 2014, 357 GM crops were approved and the global value of the GM crop market reached 35% of the global commercial seed market in 2014. However, the rapid growth of the GM crop-based industry has also created controversies in many regions, including the European Union, Egypt, and Taiwan. The effective detection and regulation of GM crops/foods are necessary to reduce the impact of these controversies. In this review, the status of GM crops and the technology for their detection are discussed. As the primary gap in GM crop regulation exists in the application of detection technology to field regulation, efforts should be made to develop an integrated, standardized, and high-throughput GM crop detection system. We propose the development of an integrated GM crop detection system, to be used in combination with a standardized international database, a decision support system, high-throughput DNA analysis, and automated sample processing. By integrating these technologies, we hope that the proposed GM crop detection system will provide a method to facilitate comprehensive GM crop regulation.

Abstract
In many countries, genetically modified organisms (GMO) legislations have been established in order to guarantee the traceability of food/feed products on the market and to protect the consumer freedom of choice. Therefore, several GMO detection strategies, mainly based on DNA, have been developed to implement these legislations. Due to its numerous advantages, the quantitative PCR (qPCR) is the method of choice for the enforcement laboratories in GMO routine analysis. However, given the increasing number and diversity of GMO developed and put on the market around the world, some technical hurdles could be encountered with the qPCR technology, mainly owing to its inherent properties. To address these challenges, alternative GMO detection methods have been developed, allowing faster detections of single GM target (e.g., loop-mediated isothermal amplification), simultaneous detections of multiple GM targets (e.g., PCR capillary gel electrophoresis, microarray, and Luminex), more accurate quantification of GM targets (e.g., digital PCR), or characterization of partially known (e.g., DNA walking and Next Generation Sequencing (NGS)) or unknown (e.g., NGS) GMO. The benefits and drawbacks of these methods are discussed in this review.

Abstract
Genetic transformation of fish is mainly oriented towards the improvement of growth for the benefit of the aquaculture. Actually, Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) is the species most transformed to achieve growth rates quite large compared to the wild. To anticipate the presence of contaminations with GM salmon in fish markets and the lack of labeling regulations with a mandatory threshold, the proper methods are needed to test the authenticity of the ingredients. A quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (QRT-PCR) method was used in this study. Ct values were obtained and validated using 15 processed food containing salmon. The relative and absolute limits of detection were 0.01% and 0.01 ng/μl of genomic DNA, respectively. Results demonstrate that the developed QRT-PCR method is suitable specifically for identification of S. salar in food ingredients based on the salmon growth hormone gene 1 (GH1). The processes used to develop the specific salmon reference gene case study are intended to serve as a model for performing quantification of Aquadvantage® GM salmon on future genetically modified (GM) fish to be commercialized.

Abstract
To meet the ever-increasing demand for detection of genetically modified crops (GMCs), low-cost, high-throughput and high-accuracy detection assays are needed. The new multiplex asymmetric polymerase chain reaction and asymmetric hyper-branched rolling circle amplification coupled with reverse dot blot (RDB) systems were developed to detect GMCs. Thirteen oligonucleotide probes were designed to identify endogenous targets (Lec1, Hmg and Sad1), event-specific targets (RRS-5C, RRS-3C, Bt176-3C and MON810-3C), screening targets (35S promoter and NOS terminator), and control targets (18S and PLX). Optimised conditions were as follows: tailed hybridization probes (1-2 pmol/l) were immobilized on a membrane by baking for 2h, and a 10:1 ratio of forward to reverse primers was used. The detection limits were 0.1 μg/l of 2% RRS and 0.5 ng/l of DNA from genetically modified (GM) soybean. These results indicate that the RDB assay could be used to detect multiplex target genes of GMCs rapidly and inexpensively.

Abstract
The cry2Ab and cry3A genes are two of the most important insect-resistant exogenous genes and had been widely used in genetically-modified crops. To develop more effective alternatives for the quick identification of genetically-modified organisms (GMOs) containing these genes, a rapid and visual loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) method to detect the cry2Ab and cry3A genes is described in this study. The LAMP assay can be finished within 60 min at an isothermal condition of 63 °C. The derived LAMP products can be obtained by a real-time turbidimeter via monitoring the white turbidity or directly observed by the naked eye through adding SYBR Green I dye. The specificity of the LAMP assay was determined by analyzing thirteen insect-resistant genetically-modified (GM) crop events with different Bt genes. Furthermore, the sensitivity of the LAMP assay was evaluated by diluting the template genomic DNA. Results showed that the limit of detection of the established LAMP assays was approximately five copies of haploid genomic DNA, about five-fold greater than that of conventional PCR assays. All of the results indicated that this established rapid and visual LAMP assay was quick, accurate and cost effective, with high specificity and sensitivity. In addition, this method does not need specific expensive instruments or facilities, which can provide a simpler and quicker approach to detecting the cry2Ab and cry3A genes in GM crops, especially for on-site, large-scale test purposes in the field.

Abstract
Cultivation and marketing of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) have been unevenly adopted worldwide. To facilitate international trade and to provide information to consumers, labelling requirements have been set up in many countries. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) is currently the method of choice for detection, identification and quantification of GMOs. This has been critically assessed and the requirements for the method performance have been set. Nevertheless, there are challenges that should still be highlighted, such as measuring the quantity and quality of DNA, and determining the qPCR efficiency, possible sequence mismatches, characteristics of taxon-specific genes and appropriate units of measurement, as these remain potential sources of measurement uncertainty. To overcome these problems and to cope with the continuous increase in the number and variety of GMOs, new approaches are needed. Statistical strategies of quantification have already been proposed and expanded with the development of digital PCR. The first attempts have been made to use new generation sequencing also for quantitative purposes, although accurate quantification of the contents of GMOs using this technology is still a challenge for the future, and especially for mixed samples. New approaches are needed also for the quantification of stacks, and for potential quantification of organisms produced by new plant breeding techniques.
