探测植物病毒的DNA探针

以色列的Agriloab Biotechnology of Rehovot不久将向市场投放能够检测植物病毒的DNA探针。Agri-探针PV4能够检测马铃薯X病毒、马铃薯Y病毒、马铃薯卷叶病毒和马铃薯纺锤形块茎类病毒PSTV。目前的免疫测定法还不能测定出PSTV的存在。Agri-探针TYLCV可检测番茄黄曲叶病毒,一种由桔黄粉虱传播的病害。由于抗体不能有效的检测番茄黄曲叶病毒,所以该试验被认为是一种有意义的进展,植株的症状可应用于诊断中。Agrilab最近在Kiryat Weizmaan Scieace Park重新建立了一些实验

Determination of potato spindle tumor viroid and chrysanthenum stund viroid using biotinylated olideoxyribonucleotides]

A 26 base long oligodeoxyribonucleotide complementary to a common RNA sequence of potato spindle tuber viroid (PSTV) and chrysantemum stunt viroid (CSV) was synthesized. The 3'-end biotinylated one was used for the detection of PSTV and CSV RNA immobilized on nitrocellulose filters by nucleic acid hybridization. Visualization of hybridization results was performed by two ways, either by streptavidin-alkaline phosphatase conjugate or streptavidine and biotinylated alkaline phosphatase. It was possible to detect 0.65 ng of purified CSV and PSTV RNA. The suggested system of viroid diseases detection can be used by agricultural and horticultural enterprises.     

Rapid Detection of Potato Spindle Tuber Viroid (PSTV) by Dot Blot Hybridization

A PSTV probe of 350 bases, prepared in our laboratory, was used to detect picogram quantities of viroids by a simplified, improved, dot blot, hybridization technique in crude potato and tomato extracts. Optimum conditions for certification of PSTV-free potato plants were established, involving formamide concentration, washing stringencies, exposure time during autoradiography and method of probe radiolabelling. Ten pg of purified PSTV in water and 50 pg of purified PSTV added to healthy plant extract were detected. Also hybridization signals could be detected from as little as 0.075 mg of infected plant tissue.     

Linear oligomeric potato spindle tuber viroid (PSTV) RNAs are accurately processed in vitro to the monomeric circular viroid proper when incubated with a nuclear extract from healthy potato cells

A nuclear extract for the processing of oligomeric viroid RNA in vitro has been prepared from nuclei isolated from healthy potato cells grown in suspension culture. Linear RNA molecules containing concatameric units of (+) or (−) strands, respectively, of the potato spindle tuber viroid (PSTV) were synthesized in vitro with the aid of the SP6 RNA polymerase and used as substrates for processing. When oligomeric linear PSTV (+)RNAs are incubated with the nuclear extract, monomeric linear molecules are accurately excised from them, and ligated to monomeric PSTV (+)RNA circles representing the viroid proper. Oligomeric PSTV (−)RNAs are likewise processed but with a much lower efficiency. Viroid-processing operates although other nucleolytic activities are still present in the extract. These results substantiate our previous finding that oligomeric PSTV does not process autocatalytically under in vitro conditions where certain introns and other RNAs do. This is the first report of an in vitro RNA processing system derived from higher plants.     

Contitions for optimal growth of a PSTV-infected potato cell suspension and detection of viroid-complementary longer-than-unit-length RNA in these cells

A suspension culture from potato spindle tuber viroid (PSTV)-infected cells of the wild type potato (Solanum demissum) has been established, which is a suitable model system for studying PSTV replicationin vivo. The conditions for rapid growth of these cells and for permanent extensive viroid biosynthesis within them are described. Biosynthesis of PSTV in the potato cells was demonstrated by³²P-incorporation into nucleic acids and their subsequent electrophoretic analysis on polyacrylamide gels. Under optimum culture conditions the amount of³²P-orthophosphate incorporation into PSTV reached 10% of that incorporated into the 2 M LiCl-soluble cellular RNA. (+)PSTV and its complementary form, i.e. (?)PSTV were identified after their electrophoretic separation on polyacrylamide and agarose gels by molecular hybridization. This analysis revealed the presence of six high molecular weight(?)PSTV species, which are possibly multimers of the unit length(+)PSTV molecule consisting of 359 nucleotides.     

Separation of the Infectious Ribonucleic Acid of Potato Spindle Tuber Virus from Double-Stranded Ribonucleic Acid of Plant Tissue Extracts

The infectious ribonucleic acid (RNA) of potato spindle tuber virus (PSTV) can be separated by hydroxyapatite chromatography from double-stranded RNA detectable in low amounts in both infected and uninfected plant tissue extracts. The chromatographic behavior of ribonuclease-sensitive PSTV RNA resembles that of transfer RNA.     

Continous replication of potato spindle tuber viroid (PSTV) in permanent cell cultures of potato and tomato

The continuous replication of potato spindle tuber viroid (PSTV) in callus cultures from PSTV-infected wild-type potato (Solanum dem/ssum L.) and tomato (Lycopersicon peruvianum L. Mill) plants and in cell suspensions derived from potato protoplasts (Solanum tuberosum L.) inoculatedin vitro is described. The persistence of PSTV replication in these cell lines through at least 14 subculture passages, which corresponds to a continous replication over a period of more than one year, was demonstrated by infectivity assay and by polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis of isolated nucleic acids. This continuous synthesis denovo of PSTV was substantiated by the incorporation of [³H]uridine and of [³²P]orthophosphate into viroid RNA.
