A one step, accelerated reverse transcription loop-mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP) procedure was developed for the detection of Plum pox virus (PPV). The six primers required for accelerated RT-LAMP were designed using a conserved region in the C-terminus of the coat protein coding region of PPV. RT-LAMP was used to detect isolates of five strains of PPV including the strains D, M, EA, C, and W. The virus was detected reliably in both infected herbaceous and woody hosts. RT-LAMP was compared to real-time RT-PCR with SYBR Green I and melting curve analysis, using serial dilutions of total RNA extracts. Similar sensitivities were observed, except that real-time RT-PCR was more consistent at lower template concentrations. The purity of the FIP and BIP primers affected the efficiency of the reaction, and incubation time and template concentration affected the ladder-like pattern observed after agarose gel electrophoresis. Although PPV could be detected after 30 min of incubation at 63 degrees C, a longer incubation time was required for lower concentrations of the target. RT-LAMP is a very sensitive, low cost diagnostic tool that should be of value in more accurate determination of the distribution of PPV. This should assist in preventing further spread of this devastating virus. Crown Copyright (c) 2006 Published by Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
