The invention discloses a multi-RT (reverse transcription)-PCR (
polymerase chain reaction)
reagent kit for
genotyping identification of BTV (bluetongue
virus) genotypes 2, 3, 4, 7 and 12 and a detection method of the BTV genotypes 2, 3, 4, 7 and 12, which are used for simultaneous identification and detection of the BTV genotypes 2, 3, 4, 7 and 12 through a
single tube. According to different
genotype virus VP2
gene sequence conservation areas of bluetongue, 5 pairs of PCR
specific primers are designed in the method, a pair of non-biologically derived universal primers are synthesized by utilizing a GeXP principle, the universal primers are respectively added to the upstream and downstream of each pair of
specific primers to form 5 pairs of specific chimeric primers, the
specific primers are used for performing inverse transcription, and multi-PCR is constructed by combining the universal primers with the specific chimeric primers. By utilizing an optimized multi-PCR
system and condition, one or more types of 5 genotypes, i.e., BTV genotypes 2, 3, 4, 7 and 12 can be simultaneously identified and detected through the
single tube, other types of PTV, PPRV (peste des petits ruminantsvirus) and FMDV (foot-and-mouth
disease virus) nucleic acids are not subjected to specific amplification, and the lowest detection concentration can reach a pg level. According to the method constructed by the invention, the sensitivity is high, the specificity is strong, the time and labor are saved, and the result is easy to observe.
