Diagnostics

CCPC performs molecular diagnostics (using PCR and high throughput sequencing) for important graft-transmissible pathogens of stone fruits. Our lab can test for over 25 targeted viruses, viroids, and graft-transmissible bacterial pathogens of fruit trees.


PCR Testing

  • Prunus necrotic ringspot virus (PNRSV)
  • Prune dwarf virus (PDV)
  • Plum pox virus (PPV)
  • Xylella fastidiosa
  • Phytoplasmas
  • Peach latent mosaic viroid (PLMVd)
  • Tomato ringspot virus (ToRSV)
  • Arabis mosaic virus (ArMV)
  • And more!

High throughput sequencing

  • Able to detect known and novel viruses
  • Can detect all viruses in a single sample
