High-throughput sequencing (HTS) technologies have the potential to become one of most significant advances in molecular diagnostics. Their use by researchers detect and characterize plant pathogens pests has been growing steadily for more than a decade they are now envisioned as routine diagnostic test be deployed pest diagnostics laboratories. Nevertheless, HTS downstream bioinformatics analysis generated datasets represent complex process including many steps whose reliability must...

High‐throughput sequencing ( HTS ) technologies have revolutionized plant pest research and are now raising interest for diagnostics, with virus diagnostics at the forefront of development. However, application in raises important challenges that health regulators will to address. Adapted infrastructures, technical guidelines training pivotal further use adoption phytosanitary framework.

Abstract High‐throughput sequencing (HTS) is a powerful tool that enables the simultaneous detection and potential identification of any organisms present in sample. The growing interest application HTS technologies for routine diagnostics plant health laboratories triggering development guidelines on how to prepare performing testing. This paper describes general technical recommendations guide through complex process preparing laboratory tests within existing quality assurance systems....

Plants recognize unrelated viruses by the antiviral defense system called RNA interference (RNAi). RNAi processes double-stranded viral into small RNAs (sRNAs) of 21–24 nucleotides, reassembly which longer strands in silico allows virus identification comparison with sequences available databases. The aim this study was to compare detection sensitivity sRNA-based diagnosis established species–specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR) approach. Viruses propagated tobacco plants included three...

Potato mop‐top virus (PMTV; genus Pomovirus ; family Virgaviridae ) is transmitted by the soil‐borne Spongospora subterranea f.sp. , a protoctist that causes powdery scab on potato. PMTV distributed widely in potato growing areas South and North America, Japan northwestern Europe. This article reviews current knowledge detection, distribution control of with focus Baltic Sea region. Since 1980s, has caused great economic losses to production Nordic countries (Norway, Sweden, Denmark...

Functions of viral proteins can be regulated through phosphorylation by serine/threonine kinases in plants, but little is known about the involvement tyrosine plant virus infection. In this study, TGBp3, one three movement encoded a triple gene block (TGB) Potato mop-top (PMTV), was detected for first time PMTV-infected plants and found to phosphorylated. Phosphorylation sites (Tyr(87-89) Tyr(120)) were located two amino acid motifs conserved TGB-containing, rod-shaped viruses. Substitution...

In July 2014, leaves showing symptoms of a viral infection were collected from plum tree serving as mother in Finnish nursery and found to be infected by Plum pox virus ( PPV ). A subsequent survey revealed additional trees originating the tree. This paper provides first report , causal agent most destructive disease Prunus Finland.
