Abstract: | Indian citrus ringspot virus (ICRSV), a member of the Mandarivirus genus, causes citrus ringspot disease, impacting kinnow orange quality and yield. Early and accurate detection methods are crucial before visible symptoms manifest in plants. In this study, a 507bp partial coat protein gene (pCPG) segment was amplified from infected kinnow tissues, cloned into a pET28a vector, and transformed into E. coli BL21(DE3) cells. Induced with IPTG, the cells overexpressed a recombinant partial coat protein (rpCP) of approximately 23kDa, purified using Ni-NTA resin via affinity chromatography. Validated in western blot with an anti-His antibody, rpCP was used to generate an ICRSV-specific polyclonal antibody (PAb) in rabbits. PAb, optimized at 1:1000 dilution, successfully detected ICRSV in infected kinnow orange leaf extracts via DAC-ELISA and IC RT-PCR assays. ICRSV was detectable in sample dilutions up to 1:640 and 1:10240 (w/v, g mL-1) by DAC-ELISA and IC-RT-PCR, respectively. One-step RT-PCR assays were also optimized, confirming the presence of ICRSV by amplifying a 507bp pCPG fragment from total RNA extracted from kinnow orange leaves, with dilution up to 1:5120 (w/v, g mL-1). The result demonstrated that IC-RT-PCR has a 16-fold and 2-fold higher sensitivity than DAC-ELISA and one-step RT-PCR assays. |
