Optimization of Hybridization Condition for Plant Virus Detection Microarray / 中国生物工程杂志

ABSTRACT

Based on the conserved region nucleotide sequences of five potato viruses/viroid(Alfalfa Mosaic Virus,ALMV;Cucumber mosaic virus,CMV;Cucumber mosaic virus-satellite,CMV-sat;Potato virus Y,PVY;Potato spindle tuber viroid,PSTVd) and one inner control(18S rRNA),the microarray containing specific oligonucleotide probes and PCR probes were designed and fabricated.The effects of probe concentration,hybridization time,hybridization temperature and spotting solutions on microarray hybridiazation were evaluated.Finally the specificity of optimized plant virus detection array was validated.No significant effect on hybridization signal intensity was observed when the concentration of the oligonucleotide probes ranged from 5 to 20 ?mol/L,there was a linear relationship between the concentration of PCR probe and hybridization signal intensity.The greatest signal intensity were obtained when hybridized at 45℃ for 4 h,and the oligonucleotide probes and PCR probes had a similar effect on microarray hybrization.Among the different spotting solutions,DMSO produced a good reproducibility.The plant virus could be detected specifically by oligonucleotide probe microarray and PCR probe microarray after optimization.
