Abstract

Pathogens such as bacteria, fungus and viruses are interminable factors responsible for food loss and plant infection. Advanced disease detection methods play a pivotal role in the prevention of damage to crop yield and ensuring minimum deprivation of plants during growth, harvest and storage. In this study, we have discussed the characteristic features of traditional methods of detection and identification of pathogens, namely, polymerase chain reaction (PCR), fluorescence in-situ hybridization (FISH), enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), immunofluorescence (IF), flow cytometry, colony forming unit, DNA-RNA based methods, enzyme and antibody based detection methods etc. All these methods require high-tech infrastructure and laboratory facility. In the present article, we have attempted to review the various applications of loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) technique and it’s commercial benefits in the field testing of pathogens and plant diseases.
