DEVELOPMENT OF A REAL-TIME LOOP-MEDIATED ISOTHERMAL AMPLIFICATION ASSAY FOR THE RAPID DETECTION OF OLEA EUROPAEA GEMINIVIRUS

Development of a Real-Time Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification Assay for the Rapid Detection of Olea Europaea Geminivirus

A real-time loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assay was developed for simple, rapid and efficient detection of the Olea europaea geminivirus (OEGV), a virus recently reported in different olive cultivation areas worldwide.A preliminary screening by end-point PCR for OEGV detection was conducted to ascertain the presence of OEGV in Sicil
