Early detection of Biscogniauxia nummularia in symptomless European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) by TaqMan quantitative real-time PCR

AIMS: To develop a quantitative real-time PCR (Rt PCR) assay for the early detection of Biscogniauxia nummularia, a xylariaceous fungus that causes strip-canker and wood decay on European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.). METHODS AND RESULTS: The molecular assay was based on TaqMan chemistry using species-specific primers and a fluorogenic probe designed on the ITS1 sequence of rRNA gene clusters. The specificity of the oligonucleotides and the probe were tested using the DNA of B. nummularia isolates from different geographic areas, of phylogenetically related species, and of some fungi commonly colonizing European beech bark and wood. A total of 31 symptomless and symptomatic shoots of European beech were collected from three forest sites in the Apennine Mountains of Italy. The percentage of positive detections of B. nummularia with the TaqMan assay was 78.6%, compared with only 14.3% of positive isolations on growth media for two sites. CONCLUSIONS: In shoots, the quantitative Rt PCR assay detected down to 8.0-fg fungal DNA per microgram of total DNA extracted. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: The assay developed in quantitative Rt PCR, by using TaqMan chemistry, revealed a rapid and sensitive method useful for the early detection of B. nummularia in symptomless European beech twigs.

Comparison of three different PCR methods for detection of Brucella spp in human blood samples

In the diagnosis of human brucellosis, PCR could be a more sensitive technique than blood cultures and more specific than conventional serological tests. We compared three different PCR methods for the detection of Brucella spp. and we studied whether human genomic DNA affect the sensitivity of three primer pairs for the detection of Brucella DNA in a peripheral-blood PCR assay. These three pairs of primers amplified three different fragments included in: (i). a gene encoding a 31-kDa Brucella abortus antigen (primers B4/B5), (ii). a sequence 16S rRNA of B. abortus (primers F4/R2), and (iii). a gene encoding an outer membrane protein (omp-2) (primers JPF/JPR). The three primers assayed showed a difference in sensitivity for detecting purified Brucella DNA, ranging between 8 fg and 20 pg. However, the sensitivity of the primers F4/R2 and B4/B5 was affected by the presence of human DNA while the primers JPF/JPR were not. Therefore, although the sensitivity of PCR using primers F4/R2 is affected by human DNA, they are still the most sensitive and they could provide a useful tool for the diagnosis of human brucellosis.     

Rapid detection of Brucella spp. by the loop-mediated isothermal amplification method

Aims:  To develop a rapid and sensitive method for detecting Brucella spp.
Methods and Results:  Two sets of six Brucella -specific primers for loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) were designed from the sequence of the Brucella abortus BCSP31 gene. The specificity and sensitivity were examined for six Brucella species (22 strains) and 18 non- Brucella species (28 strains). The LAMP assay was specific to Brucella spp. in 35 min at 63°C and sensitive (detected 10 fg of genomic DNA). The assay was also applied for the detection of Brucella DNA in contaminated milk and infected mouse organs.
Conclusions:  We developed a sensitive and specific LAMP assay for Brucella spp., with the test appearing to be useful for the detection of the pathogen from clinical and food samples.
Significance and Impact of the Study:  This is the first report of the development of LAMP for the detection of Brucella spp. As the LAMP assay can be performed at a constant temperature and its reactivity is directly observed with the naked eye without electrophoresis, our assay should be useful for the diagnosis of brucellosis as well as the detection of the bacteria in environmental or food samples.     

Specificity of six gene sequences for the detection of the genus Brucella by DNA amplification

M. DA COSTA, J.-P. GUILLOU, B. GARIN-BASTUJI, M. THIÉBAUD AND G. DUBRAY. 1996. DNA extracted from all Brucella species, reference and vaccine strains were amplified by PCR using primers specific for the genes encoding a 31-kDa Brucella protein, the heat shock proteins (DnaJ, DnaK, HtrA and GroEL) and 16S RNA. No difference was found between Brucella species and biovars with all primer pairs used, even after restriction enzyme analysis of the amplified fragments. The specificity of the amplified products was confirmed by hybridization with a digoxigenin 3'-labelled specific probe and by PCR using 98 non- Brucella micro-organisms' DNA. Only Ochrobactrum anthropi and Phyllobacterium spp. yielded a PCR product by using 31-kDa DnaK, DnaJ, GroEL and 16S RNA primers. After hybridization and restriction analysis, 16S RNA fragments of 3301 and 3331 O. anthropi strains showed a total similarity to those from Brucella. A similar result was shown with DnaJ fragments obtained with 3301 strain of O. anthropi after Eco RI digestion.
