Rapid Detection of SdhB P225F and SdhB H272R Mutations in Boscalid Resistant Botrytis cinerea Strains by ARMS-PCR

Year: 2019

Type: article

Abstract: SdhB P225F and SdhB H272R mutations have been found associated with boscalid resistance in Botrytis cinerea from strawberry in Shanghai, China.For rapid detection of two mutations, tetra-primers were designed and optimized to gain the relatively high accuracy and specificity based on the ARMS-PCR technique, by which resistance can be identified with different lengths of products on agarose gels.The tetra-primer ARMS-PCR systems for SdhB P225F and SdhB H272R were validated by 9 SdhB-squenced strains repeatedly.Then, sensitivity of 30 more strains were also tested by the methods, which were accordant with genotypes by sequencing and the sensitivity of conidial germination to boscalid by 100%.Thus, the methods developed in this study are proved to be rapid, inexpensive, accurate and practical for resistance detection of Botrytis cinerea caused by SdhB P225F and SdhB H272R mutations.
