Development of Real-Time PCR for the Rapid Detection of Episomal Banana streak virus (BSV)

Abstract: A real-time assay for the detection of episomal Banana streak virus (BSV; strain OL) in banana and plantains that carry integrated BSV sequences is described. Primers specific to the viral DNA were designed using the viral sequence integrated into the cv. Obino l'Ewai genome and the sequence of the genomic DNA of the infecting virus strain OL. They amplify a sequence of 1,336 bp that is detected in real-time by a short fluorogenic 3' minor groove binder DNA probe. This method enables reproducible and specific … Show more

“…Real-time PCR methods have been described able to distinguish eBSV sequences from those of episomal BSV (Delanoy et al, 2003), and with real-time PCR now becoming more routine in Africa, this technique offers promise to distinguish eDBVs from sequences originating from viral particles. A further method reported as being able to distinguish viral particles from EPRVs is rolling circle amplification (RCA) (Rector et al, 2004), but our experience with yam indicates that it cannot be used for rapid indexing purposes as it amplifies plant sequences at low frequency.…”

“…Using crude preparation of tissues, apple stem grooving virus, potato virus Y and banana streak virus were detected by RT-PCR or real-time PCR (Marinho et al, 1998;Chandelier et al, 2001;Delanoy et al, 2003). Besides, simple and rapid methods for nucleic acid liberation towards suitable and sensitive detection of some viruses and viroids by PCR have been described by Thomson and Dietzgen (1995) and Nakahara et al (1999), respectively.…”

“…The DNA extraction efficiency of this crude preparation method was further assessed by semi-quantitative evaluation of phytoplasma DNA using real-time PCR. The application of crude preparation of infected plants has been previously tested for virus detection by PCR amplification (Marinho et al, 1998;Marbot et al, 2002;Delanoy et al, 2003); furthermore a simple plant tissue preparation without homogenization suitable for detection of viruses by PCR was described by Thomson and Dietzgen (1995).…”

“…Realtime quantitative PCR is a method that provides accurate and reproducible quantification of gene copies, does not require post-PCR sample handling and results in much faster and higher throughput assays (Heid et al, 1996). Recently, real-time quantitative RT-PCR was successfully applied to detecting plant pathogens (Eun et al, 2000;Roberts et al, 2000;Cullen et al, 2001;Korimbocus et al, 2002;Balaji et al, 2003;Delanoy et al, 2003;Nicolaisen, 2003;Schena et al, 2004;Pico et al, 2005), but there have been no reports on identifying RBSDV with real-time quantitative RT-PCR.…”
