Abstract

Phalaenopsis orchids are one of the most popular ornamental plants. More than thirty orchid viruses have been reported, and virus-infected Phalaenopsis orchids significantly lose their commercial value. Therefore, the development of improved viral disease detection methods could be useful for quality control in orchid cultivation. In this study, we first utilized the MinION, a portable sequencing device based on Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) to rapidly detect plant viruses in Phalaenopsis orchids. Nanopore sequencing revealed the presence of three plant viruses in Phalaenopsis orchids: odontoglossum ringspot virus, cymbidium mosaic virus, and nerine latent virus (NeLV). Furthermore, for the first time, we detected NeLV infection in Phalaenopsis orchids using nanopore sequencing and developed the reverse transcription–recombinase polymerase amplification (RT-RPA)-CRISPR/Cas12a method for rapid, instrument-flexible, and accurate diagnosis. The developed RT-RPA-CRISPR/Cas12a technique can confirm NeLV infection in less than 20 min and exhibits no cross-reactivity with other viruses. To determine the sensitivity of RT-RPA-CRISPR/Cas12a for NeLV, we compared it with RT-PCR using serially diluted transcripts and found a detection limit of 10 zg/μL, which is approximately 1000-fold more sensitive. Taken together, the ONT platform offers an efficient strategy for monitoring plant viral pathogens, and the RT-RPA-CRISPR/Cas12a method has great potential as a useful tool for the rapid and sensitive diagnosis of NeLV.
