RESUMO
Four hybridoma cell lines, 2A2, 5H9, 5H2 and 5E12, secreting monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) against Lily symptomless virus (LSV) were produced by fusing mouse myeloma cells (SP2/0) with spleen cells from BALB/C immunized by the LSV particles. The four MAbs could specifically react with LSV. The titres of ascitic fluids of the four MAbs are up to 10(-6) in ELISA. Isotypes and subclasses of 5H9 and 5E12 belong to IgG1 while those of 2A2 and 5H2 belong to IgG3. Isotypes of light strains of the four MAbs all belong to kappa. The four MAbs were used in antigen-coated plate (ACP)-ELISA for LSV detection, and ACP-ELISA could successfully detect 1.8 ng of purified LSV or virus in plant sap diluted 1:300. The presence of LSV in field lily tissues was investigated with ACP-ELISA.
