摘要
The present PCR assay was conducted to develop rapid and sensitive detection of Phytophthora colocasiae,in order to provide a robust and reliable tool for healthy seedling production of taro and limiting the transmission and spread of the causal organism of taro leaf blight in taro planting regions.The samples were used to extract total DNA and to be detected by PCR with P.colocasiae specific primer pairs PCSP-RL F/PCSP-RL R and PCSP-T F/PCSP-T R,respectively.Distinct fragments of about 200 bp and 240 bp were amplified by PCR using primers PCSP-RL F/PCSP-RL R and PCSP-T F/PCSP-T R,respectively.The analysis of the nucleotide sequence of the PCR products were found to be 99% identical to sequence of RAS-related protein (Ypt1) and phospho-ribosylanthranilate isomerase (TRP1) in P.colocasiae,respectively.It is concluded that rapid and sensitive developed PCR assay for detection of P.colocasiae could be used in routine diagnosis and aid in management practices to mitigate taro leaf blight.
