The vegetative propagation of strawberries favors transmission of systemic pathogens, such as viruses, which are one of the main yield-limiting factors for this crop. More than 20 viruses have been described as infecting this species; one of the most frequent is the Strawberry mottle virus (SMoV), which is responsible for significant economic losses. SMoV is usually detected by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), given that serum is not available for serological tests. In this study, a non-radioactive molecular probe was developed for SMoV detection. The cDNA was synthesized by RT-PCR using specific primers designed from the 3’UTR region of the viral genome. The cloned cDNA segment was labeled and used as a probe. Six RNA... |

In parasitology, routine laboratory diagnosis involves conventional methods, such as optical microscopy, used for the morphological identification of parasites. Currently, molecular biology techniques are increasingly used to diagnose parasite structures in order to enhance the identification and characterization of parasites. The objective of the present study was to review the main current and new diagnostic techniques for confirmation of parasite infections, namely: polymerase chain reaction (PCR), real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP), Luminex xMAP, random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD), amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP), and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP), in addition... |
