Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of biological agricultural detection, and in particular relates to a primer pair and a kit for detecting Erwinia amylovora and applications thereof. Background Art

[0002] Apricot fire blight is caused by Erwinia amylovora, which has a wide host range and can infect more than 140 plants in 32 genera of the Rosaceae family. It mainly infects pears, apples, hawthorns, crabapples, quince and other Rosaceae fruit plants, and is very harmful to pears and apples. On pear trees, new shoots, flowers and fruits infected with apricot fire blight have obvious water-soaked lesions in the early stage of the disease. When the climate is humid, pus oozes out. As the disease progresses, the diseased tissue turns black and withers, the new shoots become like a dragon head, and the leaves, flowers and diseased fruits are stiff and do not fall off, like a burn, eventually leading to the death of the whole plant. Many countries have suffered irreparable losses due to the outbreak of apricot fire blight. In order to prevent the disease from spreading further, it is crucial to use reliable detection methods for pathogen detection and epidemic monitoring.

[0003] The most widely used detection method in existing detection technologies is molecular biology technology based on PCR, including conventional PCR detection and real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR detection. The DNA fragments amplified by existing conventional PCR detection are large and are not suitable for real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR detection. When the real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR primers designed are used for real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR detection using the dye method, the amplified DNA fragments have the problem of low specificity, and specific detection must be achieved by combining fluorescent probes. In addition, when based on real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR detection, fluorescent probes are expensive, which increases the detection cost and limits the further promotion and application of the technology. Summary of the invention

[0004] In view of this, the present invention provides a specific DNA fragment for detecting Erwinia amylovora, which is not only suitable for conventional PCR detection and dye-based real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR detection of Erwinia amylovora, but also has the characteristics of high detection specificity.

[0013] 1) using the genomic DNA of the sample to be tested as a template, and using the primer pair to perform real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR detection and / or conventional PCR detection;

[0014] 2) Determine whether the sample carries the amylovora blight pathogen based on the test results;

[0015] The criteria for judging the results of real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR detection are as follows: if the Ct value is ≤35 and an "S"-shaped curve appears, the sample is judged to carry the amylovora blight pathogen; if the Ct value is >40, the sample is judged not to carry the amylovora blight pathogen; if 35 <Ct value ≤40, re-testing is required;

[0016] The judgment criteria for conventional PCR test results are: when a fragment with a length of 136bp is amplified, the sample is judged to carry the amylovora; when a fragment with a length of 136bp is not amplified, the sample is judged not to carry the amylovora.

The primer pair can only specifically amplify amylovora, and does not cross-react with other crop pathogens and host crops (pear, apple, hawthorn, crabapple and quince).

[0059] 1. P1~P10 detects different microorganisms

[0060] The genomic DNA of 15 different pathogenic microorganisms were extracted, including Erwinia pyrifoliae, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Agrobacterium tumefaciens, Erwinia carotovora, Ralstonia solanacearum, Enterobacter ludwigii, Bacillus subtilis, Aspergillus flavus, Aspergillus niger, Aspergillus tubingensis, Fusarium solani, Penicillium glaucum, Valsa mali and Valsa ambiens, which were preserved in the laboratory.

[0061] Conventional PCR was performed using primers P1 to P10 and genomic DNA of 15 microorganisms as templates to obtain PCR products;

[0062] The conventional PCR amplification system was: 10 μL of 2× TaqPCR MasterMix, 0.5 μL of each 10 μM upstream and downstream primers, and 100 ng of genomic DNA template, supplemented with ddH2O to 20 μL;

[0063] The conventional PCR amplification program was as follows: pre-denaturation at 95°C for 5 min; denaturation at 95°C for 30 s, annealing at 54-60°C (specific annealing temperatures for P1-P10 are shown in Tables 1 and 2) for 30 s, extension at 72°C for 30 s, 35 cycles; extension at 72°C for 5 min.

[0064] The PCR products were detected by 1.5% agarose gel electrophoresis.

[0065] The electrophoresis results showed that P1-P10 amplified the expected size bands using the genomic DNA of Erwinia amylovora as template, among which the amplified bands of P1-P3, P5-P6, and P8-P10 were clear, while the amplified bands of P4 and P7 were not clear (the results of amplifying the DNA of Erwinia amylovora by P1-P8 are shown in Figure 1 ); When P1-P10 amplified the genomic DNA of the remaining 14 microorganisms except Erwinia amylovora as templates, no non-specific bands were amplified.

[0066] 2. P1~P10 detection of different host crops

[0067] The genomic DNA of 20 different host crops were extracted, including nine varieties of apples, namely 'Venus Gold', 'Luli', 'Ganhong', 'Wanglin', 'Micui', 'Miyazaki Short Branch Fuji', 'Yanfu No. 8', '2001 New Striped Fuji' and 'Huang Yuanshuai'; eight varieties of pear trees, namely 'Xiangli', 'Yali', 'Dangshan Pear', 'Xuhuali', 'Pingguoli', 'Hongxiangsu', 'Yuluxiang' and 'Cuiguan'; and one variety each of hawthorn, crabapple and quince.

[0068] The host crop genomic DNA extraction method is as follows: take an appropriate amount of plant tissue, add liquid nitrogen to fully grind, take about 0.1g and transfer to a sterile 2.0mL centrifuge tube, add 800μL CTAB extraction buffer, incubate in a 65°C water bath for 1 hour, mix by inverting several times every 15 minutes, add 800 μL of a mixture of phenol / chloroform / isopropanol (the volume ratio of phenol, chloroform and isopropanol is 25:24:1), mix by inverting, centrifuge at 12000rpm for 10 minutes, transfer the upper aqueous phase to a new 2mL centrifuge tube, add an equal volume of chloroform / isopropanol mixture (the volume ratio of chloroform and isopropanol is 24:1), mix by inverting, centrifuge at 12000rpm for 10 minutes, transfer the supernatant to a new 1.5mL centrifuge tube, add 0.6 times the volume of isopropanol, precipitate at -20°C for more than 30 minutes, centrifuge at 12000rpm for 10 minutes, discard the supernatant, add 75% ethanol to wash twice, dry at room temperature for about 10 minutes, add water to dissolve the DNA, and obtain the host crop genomic DNA.

[0069] Conventional PCR was performed using P1 to P10 as primers and genomic DNA of 20 host crops of E. amylovora as templates to obtain PCR products;

[0070] The conventional PCR amplification system, procedure and amplification product detection method are the same as those for detecting different microorganisms in P1 to P10 above, and will not be described in detail here.

[0071] The electrophoresis results showed that P1 and P3-P10 amplified non-specific bands when testing apples, and only P2 did not amplify non-specific bands when testing 20 different host crops (partial results of P1-P10 testing different host plants are shown in Figure 2 to Figure 4 ).

[0072] In summary, it is shown that the primer pair P2 designed in the present invention has good specificity in detecting different host crops and can be used for the detection of Erwinia amylovora.

[0073] Example 3

[0076] The test results showed that the dilution of 1×10 5 It can still be detected at dilution of 1×10 6 Therefore, the detection limit of primer pair P2 was 0.1 CFU / μL.

[0077] Example 4

[0078] Application of primer pair P2 in the detection of apricot fire blight

[0079] Twenty samples of pear and apple trees from the areas affected by apricot fire blight in Xinjiang and Gansu were identified as 13 positive samples and 7 negative samples by the conventional PCR method in the agricultural industry standard NY / T41802022 of the People's Republic of China.
