Why lab-based diagnostic tools??? Field Diagnostic tools – symptoms expression-BBTD
BBTD infected banana plants Nitrogen deficient banana plants
Signs –pathogen presences Bacterial ooze- Xanthomonas wilt of banana
Klebsiella bacteria Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri
Xanthomonas campestris pv musacearum(Normal yellow and Orange colored
Lab –based diagnostic methods (1) direct detection, Electron Microscopy morphology / immune electron
microscopy Light microscopy histological appearance - e.g.
inclusion bodies Antigen detection immunofluorescence, ELISA
Competitive methods Sandwich methods Antibody capture methods
Biochemical analysis (2) Molecular techniques for direct detection of pathogen
genomes.
Basic characteristic of BBWGrowth is inhibited by 0.1% triphenyl tetrazolium chloride.Metabolic characteristics include: catalase positive; oxidase negative; do not denitrify or reduce nitrate; produce small amounts of acid from various carbohydrates and
other carbon sources, but not from rhamnose, adonitol, sorbitol, dulcitol, meso-inositol, inulin or salicin.
Gluconate is not immediately metabolised and asparagine is not used as a sole source of carbon and nitrogen simultaneously. DNA G + C content
described at genus level ranges from 62.6 to 69.4% Contains fatty acids 11:0 ISO, 11:0 ISO 3OH and 13:0 ISO 3OH
that are unique to the Xanthomonas genus Bacteria were identified as Xanthomonas campestris(Xcm) by
fatty acid analysis [ID probability score approx. 0.9].

Diagnosis of BBTD Using ELISA• ELISA is a test based upon an
antibody reaction to the BBTV virus particles in the banana plant sap (ELISA = Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay)
• The ELISA test is a color change reaction to banana plant sap. Obtain from sections of suspect banana leaves as shown at right. Yellow indicates a positive reaction and that BBTV is present in the plant sap.
ELISA methods for detection of BBTDTwo forms of ELISA can be used Double Antibody Sandwich - DAS ELISA) form of direct ELISA - The wells are coated with antibody (or immunoglobulins = Ig) prepared
from antisera. The test sample is then added to allow trapping of virus antigen by the coated antibody in the well. This is followed by the addition of enzyme labelled antivirus Ig, which will attach to the trapped antigen.
- A substrate for the enzyme is now added for producing colour reaction. Peroxidase (00 450) or alkaline phosphatase (00 405) is used, which allow quantitative measurement through a spectrophotometric device (ELISA reader with. automated. photometer is often used.
Direct Antigen Coating DAC ELISA - In this direct antigen coating (OAC) technique, plant extracts prepared in a carbonate buffer are applied directly to the wells.
-In the second step, diluted unfractionated antiserum is added. Igattached to virus antigen is detected by the addition of enzyme-Igconjugates. This is the simplest procedure and can be completed within three hours. With 96 wells in a plate, as many as 16,000 samples could be tested in a day. This procedure, however, is not suitable forquantitative estimations, due to the use of crude extract.

Nucleic Acid-Based Methods
Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) (DNA viruses, fungi, bacteria)
Reverse transcriptase PCR (RT-PCR) (RNA viruses and viroids)
Hybridization: DNA probes RNA probes
Molecular Diagnosis of XCM & BBTV(PCR). It’s a technique to amplify a single or few copies of a piece of DNA across several orders of magnitude, generating thousands to millions of copies of a particular DNA sequence.
The method relies on thermal cycling, consisting of cycles of repeated heating and cooling of the reaction for DNA melting and enzymatic replication of the DNA.
Primers (short DNA fragments) containing sequences complementary to the target region along with a DNA polymerase (after which the method is named) are key components to enable selective and repeated amplification.
As PCR progresses, the DNA generated is itself used as a template for replication, setting in motion a chain reaction in which the DNA template is exponentially amplified. PCR can be extensively modified to perform a wide array of genetic manipulations.

Reverse-Transcriptase PCR (RT-PCR)• The nucleic acid is RNA, not DNA• Taq polymerase can only amplify DNA fragments• Reverse Transcriptase (RT) is used to make DNA copy of viral
RNA prior to PCR 1. DNA primer annealed to the viral RNA2. RT enzyme transcribes the RNA sequence to a complementary
DNA sequence3. These DNA copies are then used as the template for PCR.
Nucleic Acid Sequence Hybridization Powerful technique with widespread application Based on hybridization (binding) of complementary
DNA sequences
Requires probes, usually DNA fragment, which has sequence similarity only to DNA of the test organism or closely related organisms
DNA probe is labeled with radioactive phosphorous (32P), or nonradioactive label
DNA probeTechnology is basedOn DNA:DNAhybridization,which involves theselective pairing ofnucleotides betweentwo ssDNA toForm a dsDNAmolecule
