- Test kits are easy to use
and are available for several diseases (viruses, fungi and bacteria)
important to floriculture crops.
- AgriChek kits are
available from Hydros Inc. to detect fungi Pythium, Rhizoctonia and
Phytophthora , bacteria Xanthomonas campestris pv . pelargonii (Xcp)
(Bacterial Wilt) and Impatiens Necrotic Spot Virus
- Alert kits from Neogen
Corp. are available for Pythium, Phytophthora, and
Rhizoctonia.
- Each company has kits
that are used a little differently, however the same principal applies.
Tests are based on antibodies that are designed to recognize specific
antigen (ie. INSV).
- Any antigen present in
the plant sample is extracted by grinding and then mixing with the
extraction solution. The extracted antigen is then allowed to react with
antibodies that capture specific antigens.
- PCR tests are more
sensitive and accurate than ELISA tests and are better suited to plant
sample that is likely to have lower numbers of
pathogens.
- In recent years there is
emergence of a new concept namely Integrated Pest Management (IPM),
which emphasises on prevention and early detection of plant diseases,
rather than subsequent control using high value and toxic
agro-chemicals.
- Plant diagnostic kit used
for this purpose is fast growing in our country looking to the benefits
derived from it.
- The Extract-N-Amp Plant
PCR Kit offers a novel Extraction Solution that eliminates the need for
freezing of plant tissues with liquid nitrogen, mechanical disruption,
organic extraction, column DNA purification, or alcohol
precipitation.
- Agdia offers its
QTA-Tospo test kit for the detection of Tomato Spotted Wilt Virus (TSWV)
and Impatiens Necrotic Spot Virus (INSV).
- The QIAGEN Multiplex PCR
Kit contains a master mix specifically designed for multiplex PCR
applications.
- Mycotoxin test kits work
by one of two methods: thin layer chromatography (TLC) or
immunochemistry. While the TLC method has been around for a long time,
it has both advantages and disadvantages compared to the immunochemical
methods.
- One advantage of
the TLC method is that more than one
mycotoxin can be tested for with a single kit. With the immunochemical
kits, a separate kit must be purchased for each
mycotoxin.
- A second advantage of the
TLC method is that the mycotoxin is actually visualized. The
immunochemical kits detect the mycotoxin indirectly and thus are more
prone to error. Error can be reduced by purchasing test kits from
reputable companies and carefully following the instructions.
- Test kits are available
for aflatoxin, zearalenone, ochratoxin, and fumonisin. Price: columns
for each test are 57.50-10; each mycotoxin requires a separate test.
Other needed materials are sold separately.
