Real-time PCR detection systems for Flavescence dorée and Bois noir phytoplasmas in grapevine: comparison with conventional PCR detection and application in diagnostics

A new real-time PCR detection system was developed for grapevine yellows (GY) using TaqMan minor groove binder probes and including two amplicons for group-specific detection of Flavescence dorée (FD) and Bois noir (BN) phytoplasmas, plus a universal phytoplasma amplicon. FD and BN amplicons were designed to amplify species-specific genomic DNA fragments and the universal amplicon to amplify the 16S ribosomal DNA region. Efficiency of PCR amplification, limit of detection, range of linearity and dynamic range were assessed for all three amplicons. The specificity of detection systems was tested on several other isolates of phytoplasmas and bacteria and on healthy field grapevine and insect samples. No cross-reactivity with other phytoplasma strains, plant or insect DNA was detected. The assay was compared with conventional PCR on more than 150 field grapevine, insect and field bindweed samples. Real-time PCR showed higher sensitivity as phytoplasmas were detected in several PCR-negative and in all PCR-positive samples. A data-mining analysis of results from both detection approaches also favoured real-time PCR over conventional PCR diagnostics. The developed procedure for detection of phytoplasmas in grapevine also included amplification of plant DNA co-extracted with phytoplasmic DNA, providing additional quality control for the DNA extraction and PCR amplification for each sample. The newly developed assay is a reliable, specific and sensitive method easily applicable to high-throughput diagnosis of GY.     

Pcr Assay for specific detection of European stone fruit yellows phytoplasmas and its use for epidemiological studies in France

DNA amplification by polymerase chain reaction was used to specifically detect phytoplasmas associated with severe decline diseases of European stone fruits. PCR primers were designed according to the partial sequence of a nonribosomal genomic fragment of European stone fruit yellows phytoplasmas obtained by direct sequencing of a specific PCR product. A PCR assay was developed which resulted in specific amplification of a 237 bp-DNA fragment from total DNA extracts derived from over 300 stone fruit samples. No PCR product was obtained with DNA from healthy controls or plants diseased with various other phytoplasmas, e.g. the closely related apple proliferation and pear decline phytoplasmas. Phytoplasma infection was checked in all samples by PCR amplification with universal ribosomal primers. Detection rate with specific and universal primers was correlated by 97%. European stone fruit yellows phytoplasmas were detected in samples of 114 out of 139 examined orchards which represent the major stone fruit growing regions of France. Typical symptoms like chlorotic leaf roll in summer and off-season growth in winter were correlated by 95% to the presence of phytoplasmas. However, phytoplasmas were also detected in 51% of samples derived from trees showing non-specific symptoms. A comparison study including 201 samples showed that 81% of the PCR-positive samples were also tested positive using fluorescence microscopy with DAPI staining.     

Co-operational PCR coupled with dot blot hybridization for detection and 16SrX grouping of phytoplasmas

A protocol based on Co-operational PCR has been successfully applied to the detection of phytoplasmas. A triprimer reaction coupled with hybridization using general and specific probes permitted detection of ' Candidatus Phytoplasma mali', ' Ca . Phytoplasma prunorum' and ' Ca . Phytoplasma pyri', and their identification as members of 16S ribosomal quarantine group X. The sensitivity of this method was at least one hundred times greater than conventional PCR and similar to that achieved by nested PCR and real-time PCR. The method was validated by testing field samples collected from Malus , Prunus and Pyrus spp. and Olea europaea and compared with seven phytoplasmas maintained in Catharanthus roseus .     

Mapping the spread of apricot chlorotic leaf roll (ACLR) in southern France and implication of Cacopsylla pruni as a vector of European stone fruit yellows (ESFY) phytoplasmas

An epidemiological study on European stone fruit yellows (ESFY) phytoplasmas infecting Prunus fruit trees was carried out from 1994 to 2000 in Languedoc-Roussillon (southern France). The spread of the disease was monitored for 7 years by visual observation of symptoms and by PCR detection of the phytoplasma in an experimental orchard planted with apricot hybrid seedlings. This indicated that aerial vectors were responsible for disease spread, and that transmission rates were low at the beginning of the spread. Seventy thousand homopteran insects were captured within and in the surroundings of highly ESFY-infected apricot orchards, of which about 10 000 were used in PCR and nested-PCR assays with universal ribosomal and ESFY-specific nonribosomal primers to detect ESFY phytoplasmas. The other insects were confined in cages for trials of transmission to test plants. ESFY phytoplasmas could not be detected by PCR in any of the leafhopper species captured but could be detected in the psyllid Cacopsylla pruni caught on Prunus domestica and Prunus cerasifera rootstock suckers of apricot trees and on Prunus spinosa . Nested PCR revealed ESFY phytoplasmas in one individual of the deltocephalid Synophropsis lauri captured on an apricot tree. Transmission trials confirmed the role of Cacopsylla pruni as the ESFY phytoplasma vector in France. When apricot seedlings were used as bait plants from April to November during two consecutive years, no natural transmission could be demonstrated. However, one out of 50 apricot seedlings left for the whole year in the orchard became infected. An early spring ESFY infection is in agreement with both the natural transmission results and the life cycle of Cacopsylla pruni .     

Molecular identification of a new phytoplasma associated with alfalfa witches'-broom in oman

ABSTRACT Alfalfa (Medicago sativa) plants showing witches'-broom symptoms typical of phytoplasmas were observed from Al-Batinah, Al-Sharqiya, Al-Bureimi, and interior regions of the Sultanate of Oman. Phytoplasmas were detected from all symptomatic samples by the specific amplification of their 16S-23S rRNA gene. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR), utilizing phytoplasma-specific universal primer pairs, consistently amplified a product of expected lengths when DNA extract from symptomatic samples was used as template. Asymptomatic plant samples and the negative control yielded no amplification. Restriction fragment length polymorphism profiles of PCR-amplified 16S-23S rDNA of alfalfa using the P1/P7 primer pair identified phytoplasmas belonging to peanut witches'-broom group (16SrII or faba bean phyllody). Restriction enzyme profiles showed that the phytoplasmas detected in all 300 samples belonged to the same ribosomal group. Extensive comparative analyses on P1/P7 amplimers of 20 phytoplasmas with Tru9I, Tsp509I, HpaII, TaqI, and RsaI clearly indicated that this phytoplasma is different from all the other phytoplasmas employed belonging to subgroup 16SrII, except tomato big bud phytoplasma from Australia, and could be therefore classified in subgroup 16SrII-D. The alfalfa witches'-broom (AlfWB) phytoplasma P1/P7 PCR product was sequenced directly after cloning and yielded a 1,690-bp product. The homology search showed 99% similarity (1,667 of 1,690 base identity) with papaya yellow crinkle (PapayaYC) phytoplasma from New Zealand. A phylogenetic tree based on 16S plus spacer regions sequences of 35 phytoplasmas, mainly from the Southern Hemisphere, showed that AlfWB is a new phytoplasma species, with closest relationships to PapayaYC phytoplasmas from New Zealand and Chinese pigeon pea witches'-broom phytoplasmas from Taiwan but distinguishable from them considering the different associated plant hosts and the extreme geographical isolation.

Note: A comparison of molecular diagnostic procedures for the detection of aster yellows phytoplasmas (16Sr-I) in leafhopper vectors

Different molecular procedures were compared for the detection of aster yellows phytoplasmas (AYP) in the leafhopper vectorsMacrosteles quadripunctulatus (Kirschbaum),Euscelidius variegatus (Kirschbaum) andEuscelis incisus (Kirschbaum). Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with universal and group-specific primers designed on the 16S-rDNA sequence was most sensitive in nested assays. A dot-blot procedure with an oligoprobe designed on the 16S-rDNA was less sensitive and consistent to detect phytoplasmas in total insect DNA, but consistently detected amplicons from direct PCR. The dot-blot assay with a probe based on a phytoplasma plasmid sequence detected AYP in most vector specimens and did not react with DNAs from leafhoppers infected by flavescence dorée and psyllids infected by apple proliferation phytoplasmas. This last assay is almost devoid of contamination risks, faster and cheaper compared to PCR, therefore it has to be preferred for field-scale analysis of leafhopper populations. http://www.phytoparasitica.org posting Feb. 24, 2004.
