description | The advancement in CRISPR-Cas biosensors has transmuted the detection of plant viruses owing to their rapid and higher sensitivity. However, false positives and restricted multiplexing capabilities are still the challenges faced by this technology, demanding the exploration of novel methodologies. In this study, a novel detection system was developed by integrating reverse transcriptome (RT) techniques with recombinase polymerase isothermal amplification (RPA) and <i>Pyrococcus furiosus</i> Argonaute (PfAgo). The RT-RPA-PfAgo system enabled the simultaneous detection of rice ragged stunt virus (RRSV), rice grassy stunt virus (RGSV), and rice black streaked dwarf virus (RBSDV). Identifying targets via guide DNA without being hindered by protospacer adjacent motif sequences is the inherent merit of PfAgo, with the additional advantage of it being simple, cost-effective, and exceptionally sensitive, with detection limits between 3.13 and 5.13 copies/µL, in addition to it effectively differentiating between the three distinct viruses. The field evaluations were also in accordance with RT-PCR methods. The RT-RPA-PfAgo system proved to be a robust, versatile, highly specific, and sensitive method with great potential for practicality in future plant virus diagnostics. |
