Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of agricultural biotechnology, and particularly relates to an RPA detection primer for anthracnose of green vegetables and an application thereof. Background Art
[0002] Anthracnose of green vegetables is a major vegetable disease caused by the fungus Colletotrichum higginsianum. It causes dark brown lesions on leaves and stems, leading to severe yield losses. Currently, methods for detecting anthracnose of green vegetables primarily include traditional pathogen isolation and culture and conventional PCR. Traditional methods are time-consuming and susceptible to interference from environmental bacteria. While conventional PCR offers a certain degree of specificity, its sensitivity is limited, making it difficult to meet the demand for rapid early disease diagnosis. Furthermore, many fungi within the genus Colletotrichum share similar morphology and high genome sequence similarity, such as C. nicotianae, C. truncatum, C. gloeosporioide, C. siamense, C. fruticola, and C. orbiculare. Their ITS sequences also share high similarity with closely related species, making it difficult for traditional detection and ITS sequencing methods to accurately distinguish them, leading to delayed disease prevention and control measures. Therefore, developing a rapid, specific and sensitive method for detecting anthracnose of green vegetables is of great significance for early warning and scientific prevention and control of the disease. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The present invention provides an RPA detection primer for Colletotrichum oleraceus and application thereof, aiming to solve the technical problem of low detection sensitivity in the prior art.
[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is:
[0005] In a first aspect, the present invention provides an RPA detection primer for anthracnose of green vegetables, wherein the primer comprises at least one of the following three pairs of primers:
[0006] Primer 62F1: 5′-GCTCCAGATCAAGAGCCGTTGGCTATCGTAT-3′;
[0007] Primer 62R1: 5′-CCGTATTGGTGAGTATCCAGCCCATTGAGGG-3′;
[0008] Primer 62F2: 5′-CTGTTGTTCCTGCGATAGACTAACCTACTTGC-3′;
[0009] Primer 62R2: 5′-TGTTTTCCTTCAACCCATAACCTAGCTTGG-3′;
[0010] Primer 56F1: 5′-GAAAGCGGCAATCTTCAAGACATCACTGTT-3′;
[0011] Primer 56R1: 5′-CGTTGGGAATAGCCAGGGAGACAATACA-3′.
[0012] Preferably, the RPA detection primers include:
[0013] Primer 56F1: 5′-GAAAGCGGCAATCTTCAAGACATCACTGTT-3′;
[0014] Primer 56R1: 5′-CGTTGGGAATAGCCAGGGAGACAATACA-3′.
[0015] Based on the above scheme, experiments have shown that 56F1 / 56R1 is the best choice as detection primer based on comprehensive amplification efficiency and product specificity.
[0016] In a preferred embodiment, the amplification product of the primer pair 56F1 and the primer pair 56R1 has a size of 181 bp.
[0017] In a second aspect, the present invention provides use of the RPA detection primer for Colletotrichum oleraceus described in the first aspect in detecting Colletotrichum oleraceus.
[0018] In a third aspect, the present invention provides a kit for detecting anthracnose pathogens of green vegetables, comprising the RPA detection primers described in the first aspect.
[0019] The preferred solution includes RPA amplification reagents.
[0020] In a preferred embodiment, the RPA amplification reagent includes 2×RPA reaction buffer and 280 mM magnesium acetate solution.
[0021] Based on the above scheme, since the recombinase UvsX is most suitable for a weakly acidic environment, the buffer maintains the pH of the reaction system at 6.0-6.5, maintains the enzyme activity environment, and prevents nuclease inactivation. In addition, the 2×RPA reaction buffer contains KCl / NaCl to provide ion concentration, promotes the binding of the recombinase-primer complex to the DNA template, and also has the function of stabilizing the reaction components and providing amplification raw materials. The magnesium ions (Mg 2+ ) is an essential cofactor of DNA polymerase, which can catalyze the formation of phosphodiester bonds by binding to the active center of the enzyme, and Mg 2+Neutralizes the negative charge of the phosphate group on the DNA backbone, promotes stable primer-template hybridization, and thus maintains the stability of the nucleic acid structure.
[0022] In a fourth aspect, the present invention provides a method for detecting anthracnose pathogens of green vegetables, comprising the following steps:
[0023] S1. Extract DNA from the sample to be tested;
[0024] S2. Using DNA as a template, perform RPA amplification using at least one pair of primers selected from 62F1 / 62R1, 62F2 / 62R2, or 56F1 / 56R1;
[0025] S3. Detect the amplified product. When using the primer pair 62F1 / 62R1, if a specific fragment of 210 bp is present, the sample is determined to carry the green vegetable anthracnose pathogen; when using the primer pair 62F2 / 62R2, if a specific fragment of 228 bp is present, the sample is determined to carry the green vegetable anthracnose pathogen; when using the primer pair 56F1 / 56R1, if a specific fragment of 181 bp is present, the sample is determined to carry the green vegetable anthracnose pathogen.
[0026] Preferably, the RPA reaction system includes: 29.5 μL of 2×RPA reaction buffer, RPA detection primers, 1.0 μL of template DNA, sterile deionized water to 47.5 μL, and 2.5 μL of 280 mM magnesium acetate.
[0027] Based on the above scheme, 2×RPA buffer provides an enzyme protection environment, dNTP raw materials and anti-inhibitor components; the primer pair specifically targets the pathogen gene and defines the amplification region, the template DNA provides the target sequence for amplification, and the final volume is adjusted to 47.5μL with water to ensure stable osmotic pressure of the reaction solution; magnesium acetate is used as a key activator, with a final concentration of 14mM to accurately activate DNA polymerase and initiate chain extension reactions. The entire system achieves specific amplification at room temperature (39°C) and rapidly (20min).
[0028] In a preferred embodiment, the RPA amplification is carried out at a constant temperature of 39° C. for 20 minutes, and the amplified product is detected by 1.5% agarose gel electrophoresis.
[0029] Based on the above scheme, the results are specifically interpreted by fragment size (181bp), excluding the interference of primer dimers (<100bp), with an accuracy rate of >95%, realizing portable, rapid, and visual end-point detection, which is suitable for rapid field detection.
[0030] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0031] This paper designs RPA primers for the first time based on the C. higginsianum genes NC_030962 and NC_030956. Through systematic screening of three pairs of candidate primers (62F1 / R1, 62F2 / R2, and 56F1 / R1), combined with a "buffer-magnesium ion" synergistic system, it achieves fast speed, high sensitivity, and strong specificity, providing a rapid detection solution that can be deployed in the field for the prevention and control of crucifer anthracnose.
[0032] 1. Double improvement in detection efficiency and sensitivity: Existing PCR technology takes 2-3 hours and has a detection limit of only 5ng / μL, while the present invention can complete amplification in just 20 minutes and achieve single-copy detection at 0.05ng / μL (sensitivity is 100 times higher than PCR), solving the problem of traditional methods missing trace pathogens in the latent period.
[0033] 2. Strict species specificity: Zero cross-reaction against seven congener / closely related pathogens such as tobacco anthrax (C.nicotianae) and flat-headed anthrax (C.truncatum) and common plant fungi (such as Alternaria solani), only accurately amplifying the 181bp fragment of the target pathogen, and the electrophoresis interpretation accuracy rate is 100%.
[0034] 3. Strong field adaptability: In the detection of simulated disease samples, the detection accuracy of 15 artificially inoculated diseased leaves and isolated strains reached 100%, and there were zero false positives in healthy plant samples, proving that it can tolerate interference from complex plant matrices. It is low-cost and does not require professional instruments. The operation can be started at body temperature, and it only takes 1.5 hours from sampling to result output.

[0119] 2.4 Conclusion
[0120] See Figure 2 , M is DL2000DNAMarker, 1-9 are the DNA amplification results of C.higginsianum, C.nicotianae, C.truncatum, C.gloeosporioide, C.siamense, C.fruticola, C.orbiculare, Alternariasolani, and A.brassicicola, respectively; 10 is the amplification product of sterile water using primers 56F1 / 56R1; A is the RPA test result, only sample No. 1 showed a 181bp band; B is the amplification of ITS1 / ITS4 fragments, and 1-9 all amplified bands of the theoretical size.
[0121] Specificity: Primer pair 56F1 / 56R1 is absolutely specific for C. higginsianum at the species level, amplifying a clear 181bp band only for C. higginsianum. No amplification product was found in any control strains (six closely related species of Colletotrichum). The primer pair can strictly distinguish seven closely related species of Colletotrichum (including common mixed pathogens in the field), providing a molecular basis for accurate field detection of anthracnose pathogens in green vegetables and avoiding false positives.
[0122] 3. Sensitivity test of RPA primers 56F1 / 56R1 and comparison with PCR
[0123] 3.1 Materials and Methods
[0124] DNA source: C. higginsianum pure culture strain (CTAB extraction, initial concentration 100 ng / μL)
[0125] Gradient dilution: dilute the DNA of Colletotrichum oleraceus to 50, 5, 0.5, 0.05, 0.005, 0.0005, and 0.00005 ng / μL in sequence.
[0126] Amplification method:

[0128]
[0129] 5 μL of amplified product was taken and subjected to 1.5% agarose gel electrophoresis (120 V, 20 min), and GelRed staining was used for imaging.

[0132]
[0133]
[0134] Note: ++++: very strong band; +++: strong; ++: moderate; +: weakly visible; -: no band RPA detection limit: 0.05 ng / μL (approximately 0.1 copies / μL)
[0135] PCR detection limit: 5 ng / μL (approximately 10 copies / μL)
[0136] 3.3 Conclusion
[0137] See Figure 3 , M is DL2000DNAMarker, 1-7 are the amplification results of 50, 5, 0.5, 0.05, 0.005, 0.0005, and 0.00005 ng / μL Colletotrichum broccoli DNA, respectively; 8 is the amplification product of sterile water using primers 56F1 / 56R1; A is the RPA test result, 1-4 samples showed a 181 bp band; B is the PCR test result, 1-2 amplified a band of the theoretical size.
[0138] RPA can still detect a clear 181bp band at 0.05ng / μL, while conventional PCR no longer amplifies products at 0.5ng / μL. RPA sensitivity is 100-fold higher than PCR (0.05ng / μL vs 5ng / μL), and the time required is reduced to 1 / 6 (20min vs 120min).
[0139] RPA amplified effectively in the concentration range of 0.05-50 ng / μL, and the band intensity decreased gently with concentration; the PCR signal disappeared sharply when the concentration was less than 5 ng / μL.
[0140] Primers 56F1 / 56R1 achieve single-copy level detection (0.05ng / μL) under the RPA system, solving the problem of missed detection of trace pathogen samples in the incubation period. Compared with conventional PCR, the sensitivity is increased by 100 times, and the time is shortened to 1 / 6 (20min vs 120min), providing a reliable rapid detection tool for early infection (asymptomatic stage) in the field to avoid disease outbreaks.
[0141] 4. Detection and verification of RPA method on actual disease samples
[0142] Positive group: C. higginsianum diseased leaves were inoculated, 15 samples, pathogen colonies were isolated and DNA was extracted.
[0143] Negative control group: 5 samples of healthy green vegetable leaves, direct extraction of plant tissue DNA.
[0144] Blank control: sterile water, 1 portion, used instead of template for amplification.
[0145] 4.1 Test steps
[0146] C1. Sample preparation: C. higginsianum spore suspension (10 6 spores / mL) were spray-inoculated on healthy cabbage leaves and cultured at 25°C with moisturizing for 5 days until typical anthracnose lesions formed. Tissues from the lesion edges were disinfected and placed on PDA plates. The plates were cultured at 25°C for 3 days, and colonies were purified. DNA of the isolated strains and healthy leaves was extracted using the CTAB method.
[0147] C2. RPA amplification: 29.5 μL of 2×RPA buffer, 2.4 μL of each 10 μM primer, 1.0 μL of template DNA, and ddH2O to 47.5 μL. Mix well, add 2.5 μL of 280 mM magnesium acetate (final concentration 14 mM), and incubate at 39°C for 20 min.
[0148] C3. Detection of a 181 bp band by 1.5% agarose gel electrophoresis (120 V, 20 min).

[0151] Sample type Detection ratio of 181bp band Representative Results Positive group (diseased leaf isolates) 15 / 15(100%) Clear stripes (++++++) Negative group (healthy leaves) 0 / 5(0%) No band (-) Blank control No band (-) No band (-)
[0152] See Figure 4 , M is DL2000 DNAMarker, 1-3 are fungal DNA isolated from laboratory-inoculated diseased samples, 4 is Colletotrichum broccoli DNA (positive control), and 5 is healthy cabbage DNA (negative control, 181bp bands appear in all 1-3). The target pathogen was successfully detected in all artificially diseased samples (100% accuracy), with no false positives in healthy samples. The amplified band intensities of isolates from different lesions were consistent, demonstrating that the method is tolerant to sample variation.
[0153] 4.3 Conclusion
[0154] The RPA method has a 100% accuracy rate in pathogen detection of actual disease samples (including background plant matrices), with no false positives or false negatives. It overcomes the interference of endogenous inhibitors in plant tissues and does not require DNA purification. In addition, it only takes 1.5 hours from sample processing to result output, while traditional isolation and identification takes 5-7 days. This provides a reliable tool for early diagnosis, pathogen monitoring, and prevention and control decisions of anthracnose in field vegetables.
[0155] Through these experiments, the present invention screened and identified the optimal targeting primer, 56F1 / RI. Specificity verification demonstrated zero crossover against seven closely related anthrax species. Sensitivity testing reached 0.05 ng / μL (a 100-fold improvement compared to PCR), and the detection accuracy of actual disease samples was 100%. The entire process took 1.5 hours, resolving the dilemma of traditional methods, which struggled to balance timeliness and sensitivity.
[0156] The present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned optional implementation modes. Anyone can derive other forms of products under the inspiration of the present invention.
