A reliable and rapid pathogen detection protocol that utilizes colorimetric loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) was developed for detection of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici In this regard, all four LAMP primers (i.e. F3, B3, FIP and BIP) together with PCR primers (F and B) were designed based on conserved sequence of 28s ribosomal RNA gene which conserve between Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici isolates (GenBank accession number: HM057281.1). Even though PCR and LAMP assays could successfully detect positive infected samples, considering the time, safety, cost and simplicity, the latter was overall superior. Furthermore, the results demonstrated that the LAMP assay was more sensitive and faster compared to PCR. Interestingly, LAMP reaction could successfully detect Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici without DNA purification (direct-LAMP). Meanwhile, among six visual dyes used to detect LAMP products, hydroxynaphthol blue, GeneFinder TM and SYBR Green I could produce long stable color change and brightness in a close tube-based approach to prevent cross-contamination risk. Altogether, as LAMP is sensitive, cost effective, fairly user friendly and also can generate more accurate results than previous diagnostic procedures such as serological methods, PCR and other molecular methods, we accordingly propose this colorimetric assay as a highly reliable alternative fungi recognition system regarding Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici recognition and probably other fungi-based diseases.
