The invention discloses a kit and a method for detecting TYLCV (tomato yellow leaf curl virus) carried by tomato seedlings. A primer group provided by the invention comprises a primer 1, a primer 2, a primer 3 and a primer 4; and nucleotide sequences of the primer 1, the primer 2, the primer 3 and the primer 4 respectively and sequentially are a sequence 1, a sequence 2, a sequence 3 and a sequence 4 in a sequence list. The experiment provided by the invention proves that aiming at whether the tomato seedlings are infected by the TYLCV, LAMP (loop mediated isothermal amplification) primer is designed according to the gene group sequence of TYLCV superior strain generated in China, the experiment puts forward that a tomato leaf or a leaf stem is punctured directly by utilizing a toothpick or a sucker, DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is not required to be extracted, the LAMP reaction is carried out directly, and the kit and the method for detecting TYLCV carried by the tomato seedlings have the advantages of simpleness and convenience, speediness, flexibility and the like, and overcome the defects that in the traditional technology, time is consumed, requirements for extracting nucleic acid and instruments are high, the steps are complex and the like.
