Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of biotechnology, and particularly relates to a LAMP primer set for identifying Bactrocera minax and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Bactrocera minax (Enderlein) belongs to the order Diptera, the family Tephritidae and the genus Bactrocera, and is one of the most serious pests of citrus. With the increase of domestic citrus planting area and the increasing frequency of trade of citrus fruits, the occurrence and damage of Bactrocera minax are expanding.

[0003] Bactrocera minax is a specific parasite of citrus trees, and its larvae feed on the locules of the damaged fruits and occasionally on the seeds, causing a fluff-like state in the later stage of the damaged fruits. The larvae can move between the locules and feed horizontally. The early hatched larvae are in large numbers, causing the damaged fruits to turn yellow prematurely, resulting in fruit drop and decay. The pest not only seriously reduces the yield and quality of citrus, but also greatly discourages the enthusiasm of farmers to plant citrus. Meanwhile, the purchase of damaged fruits by consumers causes panic and serious economic losses. Bactrocera minax is mainly spread through the trade of fruits with larvae in the damaged fruits, and the adults also have a certain flying ability and transmission capacity. Therefore, how to effectively, quickly and accurately identify Bactrocera minax is particularly important for pest monitoring in the field of citrus fruit trade and pest identification in the field of plant quarantine.

[0004] At present, the identification methods of Bactrocera minax mainly include traditional morphological identification and molecular identification technology. Bactrocera minax and Bactrocera nox are morphologically similar, and the identification of larvae lacks obvious identification characteristics. The identification of adult Bactrocera minax and adult Bactrocera nox can be distinguished by the characteristics of the ovipositor of female insects, but the identification of male insects only has the thoracic bristles as the identification characteristic, which requires professional morphological knowledge and is difficult to identify morphologically. Although the existing PCR molecular identification technology can achieve rapid and accurate identification, it requires expensive equipment and has high identification cost, which is not suitable for popularization and application in basic departments.

[0005] Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) is a nucleic acid denaturation and automatic cycle chain displacement nucleic acid amplification reaction under isothermal conditions using a Bst DNA polymerase with chain displacement activity and cascade nucleic acid amplification function. LAMP designs four specific primers for six regions of the target sequence, and uses a DNA polymerase with chain displacement function to continuously replicate and amplify DNA at a constant temperature. In order to improve the reaction efficiency, two loop primers can be added to the reaction system to bind to the stem-loop structure, start chain displacement synthesis, and cycle replication. LAMP is a simple and efficient nucleic acid isothermal amplification technology, which can amplify reaction products in a short time, has higher sensitivity, and is simple to operate without special instruments. The detection result can be observed and judged by naked eye, and is suitable for popularization and application in basic departments. In LAMP, primers are the key factors that determine the sensitivity and specificity of the detection results. SUMMARY

[0073] Table 1

[0074]

[0075] Example 1, obtaining of primer set and kit for identifying B. dorsalis

[0076] I. Screening of primer set for identifying B. dorsalis

[0077] 1. The COI gene DNA barcode sequence in the mitochondrial genome of B. dorsalis was used as the target gene to design and synthesize primer set BM1 and primer set BM2 for identifying B. dorsalis. The primer sequences of each primer set are shown in Table 2.

[0078] Table 2

[0079]

[0080]

[0081] 2. The genomic DNA of the fruit fly samples was extracted using the blood / cell / tissue genomic DNA extraction kit to obtain the genomic DNA of the fruit fly samples.

[0082] The fruit fly samples were B. aurantii with sample number 3, B. dorsalis with sample number 6 and B. minor with sample number 18 in Table 1.

[0083] 3. The genomic DNA of the fruit fly samples was used as the template to perform loop-mediated isothermal amplification using primer set BM1 or primer set BM2 to obtain the amplification product.

[0084] The reaction system was 25 μL, which was composed of 12.5 μL Warm Start LAMP 2x Master Mix, 1 μL DNA template, primer mixture and sterile ultrapure water. The primer mixture was a mixture of primers in the primer set. In the reaction system, the final concentration of outer primer F3 and outer primer B3 was 0.2 μM, and the final concentration of inner primer FIP and inner primer BIP was 1.6 μM.

[0085] Reaction conditions: 65℃ for 50 min.

[0086] 4. The amplification product was subjected to 2% agarose gel electrophoresis.

[0087] According to the above method, the template was replaced with sterile ultrapure water, and the other steps were unchanged, serving as a negative control.

[0088] The detection results of primer set BM1 and BM2 are shown in the following figures Figure 1 . The left figure is primer set BM1, and the right figure is primer set BM2. M is DNA Marker, 1 is B. minax, 2 is B. aurantii, 3 is B. dorsalis, and N is sterile ultrapure water.

[0089] The results show that only primer set BM1 shows a typical ladder band in identifying B. minax, and the negative control does not show a band. Therefore, only primer set BM1 can be used to identify B. minax.

[0090] II. Preparation of a kit for identifying B. minax

[0091] The kit for identifying B. minax comprises primer set BM1.

[0092] Example 2, application of the kit prepared in Example 1 in identifying whether the to-be-tested fruit fly is or is a candidate for B. minax

[0093] I. Identifying whether the to-be-tested fruit fly is or is a candidate for B. minax by agarose gel electrophoresis

[0094] 1. The genomic DNA of the to-be-tested fruit fly is extracted using a blood / cell / tissue sample genomic DNA extraction kit to obtain the genomic DNA of the to-be-tested fruit fly.

[0095] 2. The genomic DNA of the to-be-tested fruit fly is used as a template, and primer set BM1 is used for loop-mediated isothermal amplification to obtain an amplification product.

[0096] The reaction system is 25 μL, which is composed of 12.5 μL Warm Start LAMP 2x Master Mix, 1 μL DNA template, 9 μL primer mixture, and 2.5 μL sterile ultrapure water. The primer mixture is a mixture of the primers in primer set BM1. In the reaction system, the final concentration of the outer primers F3 and B3 is 0.2 μM, and the final concentration of the inner primers FIP and BIP is 1.6 μM.

[0097] The reaction conditions are 65℃ for 50 min.

[0098] 3. The amplification product is subjected to 2% agarose gel electrophoresis.

[0099] According to the above method, the template is replaced with sterile ultrapure water, and the other steps remain unchanged, serving as a negative control.

[0100] According to the above method, the template is replaced with the genomic DNA of B. minax, and the other steps remain unchanged, serving as a positive control.

[0101] 4. According to the electrophoresis result, the following judgment is made:

[0102] When the positive control presents a typical ladder-like band and the negative control has no band, if the test fruit fly presents a typical ladder-like band, the test fruit fly is or is a candidate for the citrus fruit fly; if the test fruit fly does not present a typical ladder-like band (such as no band), the test fruit fly is not or is not a candidate for the citrus fruit fly.

[0103] When the positive control does not present a typical ladder-like band or the negative control has a band, the identification result of the test fruit fly is invalid.

[0104] II. Visual identification of whether the test fruit fly is or is a candidate for the citrus fruit fly

[0105] 1. The genomic DNA of the test fruit fly is extracted by using a blood / cell / tissue sample genomic DNA extraction kit to obtain the genomic DNA of the test fruit fly.

[0106] 2. The genomic DNA of the test fruit fly is used as a template, and loop-mediated isothermal amplification is performed by using primer set BM1.

In the reaction system, the final concentration of the outer primer F3 and the outer primer B3 is 0.2 μM, and the final concentration of the inner primer FIP and the inner primer BIP is 1.6 μM.

[0108] Reaction conditions: 65℃ for 50 min.

[0109] According to the above method, the template is replaced with sterile ultrapure water, and the other steps are unchanged, which is used as a negative control.

[0110] According to the above method, the template is replaced with the genomic DNA of the citrus fruit fly, and the other steps are unchanged, which is used as a positive control.

[0111] 3. After step 2 is completed, the color of the reaction system is observed with the naked eye, and then the following judgment is made:

[0112] When the reaction system of the positive control is yellow and the reaction system of the negative control is pink, if the reaction system of the test fruit fly is yellow, the test fruit fly is or is a candidate for the citrus fruit fly; if the reaction system of the test fruit fly is pink, the test fruit fly is not or is not a candidate for the citrus fruit fly.

[0113] When the reaction system of the positive control is not yellow or the reaction system of the negative control is not pink, the identification result of the test fruit fly is invalid.

[0114] The inventors of the present application identified whether the to-be-tested fruit flies were B. dorsalis by the method of Step 2.

[0146] 1. Extract the genomic DNA of Bactrocera minax using the blood / cell / tissue sample genomic DNA extraction kit.

[0147] 2. Take the genomic DNA of Bactrocera minax, and perform gradient dilution with sterile water to obtain dilutions with concentrations of 10.0 ng / μL, 1.0 ng / μL, 1.0 x 10 -1 ng / μL, 1.0 x 10 -2 ng / μL, 1.0 x 10 -3 ng / μL, and 1.0 x 10 -4 ng / μL of genomic DNA of Bactrocera minax.

[0148] 3. Use the dilutions obtained in step 2 as templates, and perform loop-mediated isothermal amplification using primer set BM1 to obtain amplification products.

[0149] The reaction system is 25 μL, which is composed of 12.5 μL Warm Start LAMP 2x Master Mix, 1 μL DNA dilution (1 μL of the dilution contains 10.0 ng, 1.0 ng, 1.0 x 10 -1 ng, 1.0 x 10 -2 ng, 1.0 x 10 -3 ng, or 1.0 x 10 -4 ng of genomic DNA of Bactrocera minax), 9 μL primer mixture, and 2.5 μL sterile ultrapure water. The primer mixture is a mixture of the primers in primer set BM1. In the reaction system, the final concentration of outer primer F3 and outer primer B3 is 0.2 μM, and the final concentration of inner primer FIP and inner primer BIP is 1.6 μM.

[0150] Reaction conditions: 65℃ for 50 min.

[0151] 4. Perform 2% agarose gel electrophoresis on the amplification products.

[0152] According to the above method, replace the template with sterile ultrapure water, and the other steps remain unchanged, as a negative control.

[0153] According to the above method, replace the template with genomic DNA of Bactrocera minax, and the other steps remain unchanged, as a positive control.

[0154] If typical ladder-like bands are present, it indicates that the corresponding genomic content in the reaction system can be detected. If typical ladder-like bands are not present (such as no bands), it indicates that the corresponding genomic content in the reaction system cannot be detected.

[0155] Some of the test results are shown in Table 1. Figure 4(1-6 DNA template concentration in turn: 10.0 ng / μL, 1.0 ng / μL, 1.0×10 - 1 ng / μL, 1.0×10 -2 ng / μL, 1.0×10 -3 ng / μL, 1.0×10 -4 ng / μL, N is negative control). The results show that the sensitivity of primer group BM1 for identifying B. dorsalis is 1.0 ng / μL.

[0156] Therefore, it can be seen that the primer group BM1 has high sensitivity for identifying B. dorsalis.

[0157] The above only describes the preferred embodiments of the present application, and it should be noted that for those skilled in the art, without departing from the technical principles of the present application, a number of improvements and refinements can be made, and these improvements and refinements should also be considered as the protection scope of the present application.
