The sensitivity, specificity, and applicability of the system were evaluated accordingly. The results showed that amplicons were produced from CYVCV isolates, whereas no amplicons from non-CYVCV citrus virus samples, including Citrus tristeza virus(CTV) and Citrus tatter leaf virus(CTLV), were obtained. The sensitivity of the q RT-PCR was 100-fold higher than that of conventional RT-PCR. An excellent linear correlation(R2= 0.999) was obtained from two standard curves of c RNA, and the amplification efficiency was 102%. The data from field citrus samples detection showed that the q RT-PCR system could be used in determining the concentration of CYVCV in different citrus species.展开更多
