Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of biological technology, and specifically relates to a constant temperature amplification primer, a probe, a kit and a method for detecting the anthracnose pathogen of pecan (Colletotrichum fructicola), which is suitable for on-site real-time rapid detection of the disease by departments such as port quarantine, scientific research units, agricultural and forestry management and growers. Background Art

[0002] Thin-shell pecan (Carya illinoinensis), also known as American pecan, is native to the United States and northern Mexico. It belongs to the genus Carya of the Juglandaceae family. It is a deciduous tall tree and is a world-famous dried fruit. As a nutritious and health food, it is deeply loved by citizens. Because of its high economic value, it has been widely introduced to more than 20 countries around the world. my country began to introduce thin-shell pecans in the early 20th century. At present, the planting areas are mainly distributed in Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Anhui and Yunnan, and the planting area has reached more than 1.2 million mu. However, with the continuous expansion of the planting area of ​​thin-shell pecans in my country, anthracnose of thin-shell pecans has occurred in all planting areas, seriously affecting the yield and quality. It is currently one of the main diseases of thin-shell pecans. The disease has a long incubation period. The infected plants do not show necrosis symptoms for a long time. Only when they encounter high temperature and high humidity conditions will large-scale necrosis occur and an epidemic will break out. Therefore, rapid detection of the early infection in the orchard, mastering the infection situation of the disease and implementing prevention and control measures in time are the prerequisites for controlling the outbreak of the disease. At present, there is a lack of on-site rapid detection methods and kits for anthracnose of thin-shell pecans both at home and abroad.

[0003] The dominant pathogen of thin-shelled pecan anthracnose is Colletotrichum fructicola, which can infect the leaves and fruits of thin-shelled pecans. At present, the detection technology methods of fruit anthracnose bacteria only remain on the laboratory detection technology platform, mainly relying on traditional pathogen detection technology and ITS sequence analysis. In the laboratory, a large number of isolates need to be separated, cultured and purified from materials suspected of carrying pathogens or diseased plant tissues, and the purified isolates are verified by "Koch's postulates". The detection process is cumbersome, not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also has a low detection rate. In addition, detection or identification is also interfered by other microorganisms, such as saprophytes, parasites and similar species, which also increases the difficulty of separation detection or identification. Therefore, the existing detection methods cannot meet the detection needs of on-site scenarios such as port quarantine, field quarantine and disease monitoring.

[0004] In order to overcome the problem of detecting anthracnose bacteria of thin-shelled pecans in the early stage, the inventor designed and screened the Padlock probe of thin-shelled pecan anthracnose bacteria and its detection method (patent number: ZL201910879229.X) according to the pectin lyase gene (pectin lyase, pl) sequence of anthracnose bacteria based on the principle of Padlock probe (PLPs) detection technology. The detection method can detect thin-shelled pecan anthracnose bacteria (Colletotrichum gloeosporioides) in the strain to be tested with high throughput and specificity, but it is not specific to the other 16 species of the genus Anthrax. In addition, the detection technology depends on the laboratory working environment, requires PCR instruments and molecular hybridization instruments, and cannot meet the needs of rapid on-site detection. Therefore, the existing rapid detection method of thin-shelled pecan anthracnose bacteria has certain defects in practicality.

[0005] In recent years, with the rapid development of molecular biology technology, scholars and enterprises in various countries have focused on the research and development of molecular rapid detection technology and tools for pathogens, and there are continuous reports and applications of novel molecular rapid detection technology research. Isothermal amplification techniques have attracted widespread attention and favor due to their high sensitivity, strong specificity, convenient operation, and short time consumption. Recombinase Polymerase Amplification (RPA) is a new isothermal amplification technology developed by Piepenburg et al. in 2006 and is considered to be the isothermal amplification technology with the greatest application potential. Under constant temperature (37-42°C), the specific primers in this technology system bind to the recombinase to form the complex Rec / ssDNA; with the help of auxiliary proteins and single-stranded DNA binding protein (SSB), they invade the double-stranded DNA template to form a D-Loop region, and the specific primers perform sequence recognition on the template DNA; the conformation of the Rec / ssDNA complex changes on the target sequence, the recombinase dissociates, the 3' end of the primer is exposed, and is recognized by DNA polymerase I (Pol I). Pol I performs base complementation according to the specific target sequence and initiates DNA amplification response at the 3' end of the primer. At the same time, the strand displacement DNA polymerase extends the primer and unwinds the double-helix DNA structure, allowing the DNA sequence synthesis process to continue. Due to the different principles of RPA amplification product detection technology, RPA detection technology is divided into basic-RPA, fluorescence-RPA and lateral flow dipstick RPA (LFD-RPA). Among them, LFD-RPA does not require complex and sophisticated instruments and equipment, is convenient, fast, sensitive and efficient, and can meet the needs of on-site rapid detection technology. In the LFD-RPA system, exonuclease IV (nfo) and nfo probe are added. The 5' end of the nfo probe has a fluorescent group, the 3' end has a blocker, and the abasic site (THF) is marked at a sequence position of about 30 nt from the 5' end. During the RPA specific primer amplification process, nfo can specifically recognize the THF site on the probe and cut it off, thereby generating a free hydroxyl end, and at the same time, the target sequence is extended under the action of DNA polymerase. Because the reverse primer is labeled with biotin, the final RPA amplification product is a double-labeled product, that is, the 5' end is labeled with a fluorescent group and the 3' end is labeled with biotin.When the RPA amplification product is dripped onto the lateral flow chromatography test strip, within 3 to 5 minutes, the biotin ligand combines with the biotin at the 3' end, and a dark band appears on the test line. The uncaptured immune complex continues to diffuse to the quality control line and is captured by the specific antibody to form a dark band. That is, on the test strip, the test line and the quality control line have bands, and the test result is positive, and all other cases are negative. LFD-RPA detection has the advantages of high sensitivity, strong specificity, non-instrumentation, visualization, simplicity and speed. It has strong practicality and development potential in fields such as medicine, law and plant protection that require rapid on-site detection. However, the development and application of LFD-RPA detection technology has not yet been seen in the detection of thin-shell pecan anthracnose bacteria.

[0006] Based on the principle of LFD-RPA detection technology, the inventors, on the basis of the invention of the Padlock probe and detection method of thin-shelled pecan anthracnose bacteria in the early stage, took the pectin lyase gene sequence as the target, designed the detection primers and probes of fruit anthracnose bacteria, and performed sequence comparison analysis, and found that the pectin lyase gene is relatively conservative in the genus Anthracnose, and theoretically does not meet the requirements of RPA detection primer and probe design. Although the inventors designed 3 groups of LFD-RPA detection primers and 2 probes for fruit anthracnose bacteria, specificity tests found that the candidate primers and probes are not specific to fruit anthracnose bacteria. Therefore, the LFD-RPA detection primers, probes and detection systems for thin-shelled pecan anthracnose bacteria have yet to be developed. Summary of the invention

[0007] In view of this, the purpose of the present invention is to solve the limitation problem that the detection method of anthracnose bacteria in thin-shelled pecan fruit in the prior art is overly dependent on expensive instruments and equipment, laboratory environment and professional technicians, and to provide a primer probe set, a kit and an application method for isothermal amplification detection of anthracnose bacteria in thin-shelled pecan fruit, so as to achieve simple, fast and accurate detection of Colletotrichum fructicola without special instruments.

[0065] Experimental Example 2 Optimization of Constant Temperature Amplification Reaction System

[0066] 1) Primer concentration optimization

[0067] In the reaction system, the template DNA (2ng / μL) was added in an amount of 5μL, the probe (10μM) was added in an amount of 0.6μL, and the upstream and downstream primers (10μM) were added in amounts of 1μL, 1.5μL, 2μL, 2.5μL, 3μL, and 3.5μL, respectively, that is, the final concentrations of the primers were 0.2μM, 0.3μM, 0.4μM, 0.5μM, 0.6μM, and 0.7μM, respectively. The reaction system was placed in a constant temperature of 39°C for 30 minutes; the reaction solution was diluted 10 times, and 80μL of the dilution solution was dripped into the sample well of the flow chromatography test strip. The test results were observed after 15 minutes, and the optimal reaction concentration of the primers in the reaction system was screened according to the clarity of the detection band. The results of the primer concentration optimization test showed that with the increase of primer concentration, the clarity of the positive detection band gradually improved. When the final concentration reached 0.4μM, 0.5μM and 0.6μM, there was no obvious difference in the clarity of the band. Therefore, the optimal reaction concentration of primers in the reaction system is 0.4μM, that is, the amount of upstream and downstream primers (10μM) added to the reaction system is 2μL.

[0068] 2) Optimization of probe concentration

[0069] In the reaction system, the template DNA (2ng / μL) was added in an amount of 5μL, the upstream and downstream primers (10μM) were added in an amount of 2μL, and the probe addition amounts were set to 0.2μL, 0.4μL, 0.5μL, 0.6μL, 0.7μL, and 0.8μL, respectively, that is, the final concentrations of the probes were 0.04μM, 0.08μM, 0.1μM, 0.12μM, 0.14μM, and 0.16μM. The reaction was carried out at 39℃ for 30min, and the LFD-RPA was used for detection. The optimal reaction concentration of the probe in the reaction system was screened according to the clarity and appearance time of the detection band. The results showed that with the increase of the probe concentration, the clarity of the positive detection band was significantly improved. When the concentration reached 0.14μM and 0.16μM, there was no significant difference in the clarity of the detection band. Therefore, the optimal reaction concentration of the primer in the reaction system was 0.14μM, that is, the amount of the probe (10μM) added in the reaction system was 0.7μL.

[0070] 3) Reaction temperature optimization

[0071] Based on the optimization of primer and probe concentrations, the reaction system was set to react for 30 min at 32°C, 33°C, 34°C, 35°C, 36°C, 37°C, 38°C, 39°C, 40°C, 41°C, and 42°C. The reaction results were detected by LFD-RPA. The results showed that the detection bands appeared at 32°C to 42°C, but with the increase of temperature, the clarity of the detection bands increased first and then decreased. When the temperature was 37°C, the clarity of the detection bands was most obvious, so the optimal reaction temperature was 37°C.

[0072] 4) Optimize response time

[0073] Based on the optimization of factors such as primers, probes, and temperature, the reaction time was set at 10 min, 15 min, 20 min, 25 min, 30 min, 35 min, and 40 min at 37 °C. The reaction results were detected by LFD-RPA. The results showed that as the reaction time increased, the clarity of the detection band gradually increased. After 25 min, there was no obvious difference in the detection band, so the optimal reaction time was 25 min.

[0074] Through the LFD-RPA detection system optimization experiment, the LFD-RPA detection system for thin-shelled pecan anthracnose (C. fructicola) was finally determined as: 2 μL of upstream and downstream primers (10 μM) each, 0.7 μL of probe (10 μM), 29.4 μL of AD buffer (Anpu Future (Changzhou) Biotechnology Co., Ltd.), 2.5 μL of B buffer (Anpu Future (Changzhou) Biotechnology Co., Ltd.), 5 μL of DNA template, 8.4 μL of dd H2O, and a total reaction system of 50 μL; the total reaction system was reacted at a constant temperature of 37°C for 25 minutes.

[0075] Experimental Example 3 Primer and probe sensitivity determination

[0076] The strain C. fructicola DNA was diluted in series to make its concentration 2ng / μL, 200pg / μL, 20pg / μL, 2pg / μL and 200fg / μL respectively, and the sensitivity test was performed using the LFD-RPA detection system optimized by the present invention. The results are shown in FIG. Figure 3 As shown in the figure, when the concentration of template DNA is 2pg / μL, that is, the content of template DNA is 10pg, there is a detection band, but the clarity of the detection band is not obvious; but when the concentration of template DNA is 200fg / μL, that is, the content of template DNA is 1pg, there is no detection band. The sensitivity test results show that the minimum detection limit of the detection system of the present invention is 10pg, which is about 6 copies of the genome of the strain Venturia effusa.

[0077] Test Example 4: Actual Sample Testing

[0078] This experiment selected 12 samples from different thin-shelled pecan planting areas in China for actual sample testing. An appropriate amount of tissue (1-2 g) was selected to extract genomic DNA according to the instructions of the ultra-fast nucleic acid releaser (DNA type) (Anpu Future (Changzhou) Biotechnology Co., Ltd.), or refer to the method of Wang et al. (1993) to quickly extract genomic DNA. The specific method is: add 100 μL 0.5M NaOH per gram of tissue, grind it thoroughly in a mortar and transfer it to a 1.5ml EP tube, centrifuge at 12000rpm for 5 minutes, take 5 μL of supernatant and add 495 μL 0.1M Tris (pH 8.0), mix well and take 5 μL as the detection template.

[0079] The results are as follows Figure 4As shown, the detection system of the present invention can detect 4 positive samples, namely samples 2, 3, 6 and 12. In order to verify the accuracy of the detection system of the present invention in detecting actual samples, the 12 collected samples were separated and purified by traditional pathogens and analyzed by ITS sequence sequencing. The results showed that the results of the constant temperature rapid detection system established by the present invention were all correct.

[0080] In summary, the present invention takes 9 pathogenic species of Anthracnose on thin-shelled pecans and 16 pathogenic species of Anthracnose on other hosts as research objects, and conducts research on the LFD-RPA detection technology system for anthracnose in thin-shelled pecans. The present invention has the advantages of high efficiency, sensitivity and strong specificity, and does not rely on expensive instruments and professional technicians. It can quickly realize the on-site detection of anthracnose in thin-shelled pecans, and has good application prospects in port quarantine, monitoring and early warning of anthracnose in thin-shelled pecans, and guidance of disease prevention measures.
