SYBR Hop stunt viroid – 96 tests

HSVd has a rod-like conformation with five domains, a central conserved region and a terminal conserved region. This kit has been developed by Qualiplante based on the amplification of a target sequence located on the V domain where the pathogenicity domain is located. The SYBR-Green^® technology allows to confirm that a sample generating an amplification signal is produced only by nucleic acids of the pathogen of interest, by interpretating the melting peak.

This kit offers a sensitive diagnostic method to detect HSVd and permits to avoid amplicon contamination in routine diagnosis. The performance of this kit has been demonstrated using several nucleic acid extraction procedures and different viroid-infected host species (Etrog citron, sour orange, Orlando tangelo, Washington navel sweet orange and Verna lemon).
