Cymbidium mosaic virus (CymMV) is one of economically important viruses that cause significant losses of orchids in the world. In the present study, a reverse transcription recombinase polymerase amplification (RT-RPA) assay combined with a lateral flow immunostrip (LFI) assay was developed for the detection of CymMV in orchid plants. A pair of primers containing fluorescent probes at each terminus that amplifies highly specifically a part of the coat protein gene of CymMV was determined for RT-RPA assay. The RT-RPA assay involved incubation at an isothermal temperature (39℃) and could be performed rapidly within 30 min. In addition, no cross-reactivity was observed to occur with odontoglossum ringspot virus and cymbidium chlorotic mosaic virus. The RT-RPA with LFI assay (RT-RPA-LFI) for CymMV showed 100 times more sensitivity than conventional reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Furthermore, the RT-PCR-LFI assay demonstrated the simplicity and the rapidity of CymMV detection since the assay did not require any equipment, by comparing results with those of conventional RT-PCR. On-site application of the RT-RPA-LFI assay was validated for the detection of CymMV in field-collected orchids, indicating a simple, rapid, sensitive, and reliable method for detecting CymMV in orchids.

Exposure of seedling of rice (Oriza sativa cv.Dongin) to cold stress ($6^{circ}C$, 7day) induced differential gene expression. Differentially expressed polyadenylated RNA induced by low temperature were isolated and identified from the leaves of rice (Oriza sativa cv.Dongin) seedling by using the technique, differential display of reverse transcription through polymerase chain reaction (DDRT-PCR). Four bands of cDNAs were differentially displayed on the PAGE gel through DDRT-PCR, and among them three bands were those of overexpressed genes while one band was of an underexpressed gene One of the overexpressed cDNA was characterized. The size of the DDRT-PCR product was found to be about 200 bp. The sequence of the cloned DNA was compared with those of GenBank through a BLAST E-Mail server, and it was found to have no homologies in the nucleotide sequence with that of any known DNA: therefore, it was designated as RC101 The expression of the cold-stress induced-gene, RC101, was sustained with Northern Blot analysis by using the cloned DDRT-PCR product as a probe.

This study was undertaken to clarify the more accurate detecting method of Dirofilaria immitis. Seven dogs, average 7.47 years old, confirmed with Dirofilaria immitis infection by modified Knott's method were used as the experimental animals. cDNA was constructed using oligodT(15) primer after extracting total RNA from the blood of dogs that were confirmed with Dirofilaria immitis infection. As a result of polymerase chain reaction with template using constructed cDNA, the predicted products of a 378 base-pair DNA fragment was amplified. From these results, RT-PCR was more sensitive and effective than modified Knott's method to detect Dirofilaria immitis in dogs.

Reverse transcription and polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) techiniques were used to identification and differentiation of cucumber mosaic virus isolated from Forsythia koreana (CMV-Fk). RT-PCT used by two set of 20-mer primers one was CMV-common primers and another was CMV subgroup I-specific primers designed in a conserved region of the 3' end of CMV RNA3, amplified about 490 bp and 200 bp DNA fragments from CMV-Fk, respectively. CMV could be detected by RT-PCR at a dilution as low as 10-4 in forsythia crude sap extracts. Restriction enzyme analysis of RT-PCR products using EcoRI and MspI showed that CMV-Fk belonged to CMV subgroup I. But, analysis of RNA fingerprinting by arbitrarily primed polymerase chain reaction (RAP-PCR) showed heterogeneity of RNA3 between CMV-Fk and CMV-Y as a member of subgroup I.

This paper describes the development a of direct multiplex reverse transcription-nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method, devised for simultaneous detection and typing of influenza viruses. This method combines the direct reverse transcription reaction without RNA purification with the enhancement of sensitivity and specificity of nested PCR. The method successfully detected three major human influenza viruses: influenza virus A subtype 1 (H1N1) and subtype 3 (H3N2), and influenza B virus (B). The minimum number of virus particles (pfu/ml) necessary for detection in spiked saliva samples was 200 (H1N1), 140 (H3N2), and 4.5 (B). The method's sensitivity and simplicity will be convenient for use in clinical laboratories for the detection and subtyping of influenza and possibly other RNA viruses.

Apple stem grooving virus (ASGV) is a high-risk viral pathogen that infects many types of fruit trees, especially pear and apple, and causes serious economic losses across the globe. Thus, rapid and reliable detection assay is needed to identify ASGV infection and prevent its spread. A reliable reverse transcription loop-mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP) was developed, optimize, and evaluated for the coding region of coat protein of ASGV in pear leaf. The developed RT-LAMP facilitated the simple screening of ASGV using visible fluorescence and electrophoresis. The optimized reaction conditions for the RT-LAMP were 63℃ for 50 min, and the results showed high specificity and 100-fold greater sensitivity than the reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. In addition, the reliability of the RT-LAMP was validated using field-collected pear leaves. Furthermore, the potential application of paper-based RNA isolation, combined with RT-LAMP, was also evaluated for detecting ASGV from field-collected samples. These assays could be widely applied to ASGV detection in field conditions and to virus-free certification programs.

In this study, we developed a rapid, sensitive and specific reverse-transcriptase loop-mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP) assay for detection of swine influenza viruse (SIV) including major subtypes of swine influenza viruses H1N1, H1N2 and H3N2, and a novel subtype of influenza A virus that accidentally infected in pig population. The RT-LAMP was completed in 40 min at $58^{\circ}C$ and the sensitivity of the RT-LAMP ($1copy/{\mu}L$) was 10-fold higher than conventional reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) ($10copy/{\mu}L$) and the same to real time RT-PCR ($1copy/{\mu}L$). Also, the result of the RT-LAMP can be confirmed without any detection system. Therefore, the RT-LAMP could be a alternative diagnostic method for SIV detection in national SIV monitoring system and clinical diagnostic laboratory in the future.

이질아메바 병원성 분리주에서 특이적으로 발현되는 mRNA를 동정하고자 differential display reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(DDRT-PCR)을 수행하여 병원성 특이 증폭산물을 확인하였다. 한국인에서 검출한 이질아메바 병원성 분리주 YS-27과 Entamoeba dispar분리주인 S 16으로부터 정제한 mRAN를 주형으로 11개의 arbitrary primer와 3개의 one base anchored $oligo-dT_{11}M$(M: A, C 또는 G)의 조합을 이용, DDRT-PCR을 실시한 결과 31개의 분획이 YS-27주에서만 증폭된 것으로 확인되었다. 이 331개 DNA 중 21개는 cysteine proteinase 유전자와 상동성을 나타내었다. YS-27주로부터 제작된 cDNA library를 나머지 DNA를 탐침으로 사용, 검색하여 최종 4개의 clone을 얻었다. 이 4개의 clone을 이용, immunoscreening을 수행한 결과, 이 clone들은 이질아메바 감염자 혈청과 양성반응을 나타내고 있었다.

목 적:호흡기 감염의 증상이 없는 소아들을 대상으로 다중 역전사중합효소연쇄반응법(multiplex reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction; mRT-PCR)을 이용하여 비인두 상주균의 이환율을 알아보고자 하였다. 방 법:2008년 7월 25일부터 28일까지 33명의 소아들을 대상으로 비강 면봉채취법으로 검체를 채취하였으며, 이들은 검체 채취 당시 심각한 호흡기 감염의 증상이 없었다. 모아진 검체에서 DNA를 추출한 후 multiplex primer set ($Seeplex^{(R)}$ PneumoBacter ACE Detection, Seegene, Seoul, Korea)로 PCR을 진행하였다. 증폭된 반응산물은 2% agarose gel과 전기 영동 자동화 시스템인 screen tape system (Lab901, Scottland, UK)에 각각 전기 영동하여 확인하였다. 결 과:전체 33명의 소아 중 남아는 15명 여아는 18명이었으며, 나이는 3.2세에서 16.3세로 중앙값은 8.2세였다. mRT-PCR 결과 30명(90.9%)의 소아들에서 양성을 보였으며(S. pneumoniae, H. influenzae, C. pneumoniae, B. pertussis), 이들 중 13명(39.4%)에서 2가지 이상의 균이 검출되었다. 균의 종류로는 12명(36.4%)에서는 S. pneumoniae와 H. influenzae, 1명(3.0%)에서는 S. pneumoniae, H. influenzae와 C. pneumoniae이 검출되었다.. 결 론:mRT-PCR은 비인두 상주균의 동정에 있어서 민감도가 높은 방법으로 생각된다. 하지만 비인두 상주균에 대한 PCR 결과가 소아들의 임상 양상과 어느 정도 일치할지에 대해서는 더 많은 연구가 필요할 것으로 생각된다.
