A LFD-RAA-Based Rapid Detection Method for Pseudomonas syringae pv.tabaci
This study aimed to achieve rapid detection of Pseudomonas syringae pv.tabaci,the pathogen of tobacco wildfire disease.The specific primers and probes for recombinase-aided amplification(RAA)were designed with HrpZ as the target gene.RAA was then combined with the lateral flow dipstick(LFD)to establish a LFD-RAA-based rapid detection system for the pathogen.Furthermore,the detection performance of the established method was tested.The results showed that the LFD-RAA method had high specificity.The amplification could be completed after 25 min of reaction at 39℃.The sensitivity of the established method reached 0.0001 ng/μL,which was superior to that of PCR detection.Moreover,the LFD-RAA method could quickly detect P.syringae pv.tabaci from tobacco leaves,demonstrating field applicability.To sum up,the LFD-RAA method established in this study can be applied in the rapid detection and early diagnosis of tobacco wildfire disease.
