Abstract:
Apple stem grooving virus (ASGV) is one of the relevant apple viruses worldwide. In this study, a simple, sensitive one-step reverse transcription loop-mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP) assay was developed for the rapid detection of ASGV, using primers designed in the coat protein gene. The RT-LAMP assay identified 53 infected apple leaf samples while RT-PCR identified only 49 infected samples. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on detection of ASGV by RT-LAMP.
