Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the field of biotechnology, and particularly relates to a LAMP detection system of Fusarium acuminatum, a kit and a detection method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] Medicago sativa is a perennial forage legume, and is known as the "king of forage" due to its rich nutrition, good palatability and strong stress resistance. It is the most common cultivated alfalfa in China. Root rot of alfalfa is one of the most common root diseases of Medicago sativa. The most harmful pathogenic fungus of the disease is Fusarium spp. The root rot caused by Fusarium is called Fusarium root rot, and Fusarium acuminatum is an important pathogenic fungus thereof.
[0003] Fusarium root rot is a soil-borne disease that occurs universally in alfalfa planting areas at home and abroad, and can cause plant disease during the whole growth period of alfalfa. The disease can cause the root of alfalfa to rot, leading to the gradual weakening of the function of the root system in absorbing water and nutrients until the death of the plant, and seriously harming the production of Medicago sativa. The existing agricultural and biological control measures can only control the disease preliminarily, and therefore, detecting whether the seedlings, soil and the like before planting contain Fusarium, and avoiding the use of materials contaminated by Fusarium, is an important means to reduce the risk of Medicago sativa being infected with Fusarium root rot.
[0004] Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) is an isothermal amplification method mediated by loop primers, developed and published by Notomi et al. in 2000. It allows amplification to be completed under isothermal conditions and offers advantages over traditional PCR amplification techniques, including shorter reaction time, simpler reaction conditions, higher detection sensitivity, and lower cost. The LAMP detection system mainly consists of Bst DNA polymerase, dNTPs, magnesium ions, primers, and template DNA. Optimizing the concentration and ratio of these components can enhance specific amplification, reduce non-specific amplification, improve reaction efficiency, and shorten reaction time to achieve better amplification results. In the LAMP detection system, the reaction temperature directly affects the activity of DNA polymerase, influencing both amplification efficiency and specificity. The concentration of Bst DNA polymerase directly affects the reaction. Magnesium ions play a crucial role in the LAMP reaction; they are essential for the activity of Bst DNA polymerase and DNA chain elongation. Too low a magnesium ion concentration may lead to insufficient DNA polymerase activity, while too high a magnesium ion concentration may inhibit DNA polymerase activity. dNTPs, as essential nucleotide raw materials for DNA strand synthesis in isothermal amplification reactions, have a crucial impact on the reaction results. The appropriate addition of certain additives may promote the system's performance. Betaine can stabilize DNA-protein complexes and facilitate the smooth passage of DNA polymerase through some complex secondary structures of DNA, preventing DNA polymerase dissociation from the template DNA and thus promoting specific amplification of the sample. Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) mainly affects the activity of DNA polymerase and DNA strand elongation by altering the viscosity and pH of the reaction mixture. Excessive DMSO may inhibit DNA polymerase activity, while insufficient DMSO may not be enough to reduce non-specific amplification. Furthermore, DMSO may also help reduce non-specific amplification by interacting with other reaction components such as magnesium ions, thus contributing to improved LAMP detection specificity and stability. Bovine serum albumin (BSA) can act as an enzyme stabilizer to prevent enzyme denaturation and non-specific adsorption, enhancing the reaction by protecting enzyme activity. It also plays a role in protecting the DNA template from high-temperature cleavage.
[0005] Currently, molecular detection methods for Fusarium argentis include polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA). However, these methods suffer from long testing cycles, cumbersome procedures, and poor specificity, and remain unsatisfactory. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a simple, rapid, and accurate new method for detecting Fusarium argentis to meet the practical needs of large-scale field sample screening, early disease diagnosis, and precise control, thereby promoting the sustainable development of the alfalfa industry. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is how to detect Fusarium acuminatum rapidly, sensitively and / or specifically. The technical problem to be solved is not limited to the technical subject matter described herein. Other technical subject matter not mentioned herein can be clearly understood by those skilled in the art through the following description.
[0007] To address the aforementioned technical problems, the present invention first provides a primer composition for detecting Fusarium racifolium, the primer composition comprising the forward outer primer F3 shown in SEQ ID NO:1, the reverse outer primer B3 shown in SEQ ID NO:2, the forward loop primer LF shown in SEQ ID NO:3, the reverse loop primer LB shown in SEQ ID NO:4, the forward inner primer FIP shown in SEQ ID NO:5, and the reverse inner primer BIP shown in SEQ ID NO:6.
[0008] The present invention also provides a kit for detecting Fusarium racifolium, the kit comprising the primer composition described herein.
[0009] Furthermore, the kit may also include reagents required for LAMP detection. These reagents include, but are not limited to: reaction buffer, Mg... 2+ Solutions (such as MgSO4 solution or MgCl2 solution), Bst DNA polymerase, betaine, dNTPs (dATP, dTTP, dGTP, dCTP), colorimetric indicators (such as fluorescent dyes SYBR Green I, SYBR Gold, EvaGreen, SYTO9, etc.; colorimetric dyes phenol red, cresol red, neutral red, cresol purple, etc.), positive controls, negative controls, enzyme stabilizers (such as bovine serum albumin), and UDG enzyme.
[0010] LAMP assay buffers are well known to those skilled in the art and typically contain Tris-HCl, potassium chloride, ammonium sulfate, magnesium sulfate, surfactants (such as Tween 20), etc.
[0011] Furthermore, the kit may also include reaction buffer, Mg 2+ Solution, Bst DNA polymerase, betaine, and dNTPs.
[0012] Furthermore, the kit may also contain plasmid standards.
[0013] Furthermore, the plasmid standard can be a recombinant vector obtained by cloning the DNA molecule shown in SEQ ID NO:7 into a vector.
[0014] Furthermore, the kit may also include nucleic acid extraction reagents.
[0015] The nucleic acid extraction reagent is well known to those skilled in the art and is used to extract nucleic acids from a sample to be tested. For example, the nucleic acid extraction reagent may include lysis buffer (such as any one or more of guanidine isothiocyanate, guanidine hydrochloride, and trisodium citrate), lysozyme, proteinase K, washing buffer (such as ethanol and / or guanidine salt) and / or elution buffer (such as TE buffer), etc.
[0016] The positive control can refer to a set of controls that are guaranteed to be detected. For example, it can be a target gene (such as genomic DNA or cDNA), a target gene fragment (such as a specific conserved fragment), a plasmid containing the target gene or a target gene fragment, or a positive sample control (such as a sample known to be infected or a sample known to definitely yield the expected result). The purpose of the positive control is to prevent false negatives caused by problems such as target DNA loss or degradation, DNA polymerase inactivation, or PCR instrument malfunction.
[0017] The negative control can refer to a set of controls that are certain not to be detected. For example, it can be a template-free control (NTC, where water is used instead of nucleic acid in the PCR reaction, and other reagents are added normally in proportion), or a negative sample control (such as a sample that does not express the target gene). The purpose of the negative control is to prevent false positives caused by problems such as product contamination, reagent contamination, cross-contamination between samples, and contamination during sample collection and transportation.
[0018] Furthermore, the test samples for the kit include, but are not limited to, plant samples (such as plants, plant tissues or plant seeds), microbial samples (such as plant pathogenic fungi), and environmental samples (such as water, soil, air and objects).
[0019] Furthermore, the plant sample may be a sample of alfalfa (such as alfalfa).
[0020] The various reagent components of the kit may be present in separate containers, or may be pre-assembled, in whole or in part, into a reagent mixture.
[0021] The components of the kit may be provided in solution form, such as an aqueous solution. When present in aqueous solution, the concentration or content of these components can be readily determined by those skilled in the art according to different needs. For example, for storage purposes, the components may be present at a higher concentration, which can be reduced to the working concentration by diluting the higher concentration solution when in operation or for use.
[0022] Furthermore, the kit may also include a readable carrier describing a method for detecting Fusarium rashesii. The readable carrier may be a kit instruction manual (e.g., a printed manual) explaining how to practice the method of the present invention, or a computer-readable medium (e.g., a floppy disk, CD, etc.) on which information has been recorded.
[0023] The kit described in this article is a detection kit based on loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP).

[0028] Furthermore, the method may include the following steps:
[0029] A1) Extract DNA from the sample to be tested;
[0030] A2) Using the DNA as a template, perform a LAMP reaction using the primer composition or the kit;
[0031] A3) Determine whether the sample to be tested contains Fusarium argentis based on the LAMP reaction results.

[0039] Furthermore, A3) may include any of the following:
[0040] (1) Determine whether the sample to be tested contains Fusarium argentis based on the amplification curve of the LAMP amplification product: if the LAMP amplification curve is an S-shaped curve, it is determined that the sample to be tested contains Fusarium argentis; if the LAMP amplification curve is not an S-shaped curve, it is determined that the sample to be tested does not contain Fusarium argentis.

For example, a standard with a known content can be diluted into samples of different concentrations, and these samples can be simultaneously subjected to real-time fluorescence LAMP amplification with the sample to be tested. A standard curve can be plotted based on the detection data (the horizontal axis represents the logarithm of the initial copy number of the standard, and the vertical axis represents the Ct value). When quantifying the sample to be tested, the initial copy number of the sample can be calculated from the standard curve equation based on the Ct value of the sample to be tested.

A set of inner, outer, and loop primers for LAMP were designed and screened specifically for *Fusarium argentis*. Furthermore, by optimizing the reaction system and conditions, a reaction system capable of stably, accurately, and specifically detecting *Fusarium argentis* at a constant temperature of 65℃ for 30 minutes was obtained.

[0119] Example 7: Comparison of LAMP and qPCR detection methods for Fusarium argentis
[0120] The qPCR specific detection reaction system was as follows: genomic DNA from six Fusarium species (Fusarium moniliforme, Fusarium latifolium, Fusarium aromaticum, Fusarium solani, Fusarium oxysporum, and Fusarium scutellarioides) was used as samples, with ddH2O as a blank control. 10 μL of ArtiCanCEO SYBR qPCR Mix, 0.4 μL of 10 μM upstream primer F1-2, 0.4 μL of 10 μM downstream primer R1-2, 2 μL of sample DNA, and ddH2O was added to a final volume of 20 μL. The qPCR instrument was programmed to react at 95℃ for 10 min, with cycles of 95℃ for 10 s and 60℃ for 30 s, for a total of 40 cycles, followed by the melting curve program.
[0121] The qPCR sensitivity detection reaction system consisted of qPCR plasmids at concentrations of 100 ng / ml, 10 ng / ml, 1 ng / ml, 100 pg / ml, 10 pg / ml, 1 pg / ml, 0.1 pg / ml, and 0.01 pg / ml, respectively. The following were added: 10 μL of ArtiCanCEO SYBRqPCR Mix, 0.4 μL of 10 μM upstream primer F1-2, 0.4 μL of 10 μM downstream primer R1-2, 2 μL of sample DNA, and ddH2O to a final volume of 20 μL. The qPCR instrument was programmed to react at 95℃ for 10 min, with 40 cycles of 95℃ for 10 s and 60℃ for 30 s, followed by the melting curve program.
[0122] The comparison results showed that the qPCR system used as a control could detect plasmid samples as low as 0.1 pg / ml. Figure 17 The qPCR system is specific for the detection of Fusarium raffins. Figure 18 The Ct value of qPCR for a 0.1 pg / ml plasmid sample was 35.15, and the detection time was 33.43 minutes. The Ct value of LAMP detection was 20.02, and the detection time was 20.02 minutes. The detection time was shortened by 40.12% compared with qPCR.
