Popis: We developed an insulated isothermal PCR (iiPCR) method for the efficient and rapid detection of Fusarium oxysporum (Fo), which is a fungus that infects various hosts and causes severe crop losses. The Fo iiPCR method was sensitive enough to detect up to 100 copies of standard DNA template and 10 fg of Fo genomic DNA. In addition, it could directly detect 1 pg of mycelium and 10 spores of Fo without DNA extraction. Our study compared the performance of Fo iiPCR to that of three published in planta molecular detection methods—conventional PCR, SYBR green-based real-time PCR, and hydrolysis probe-based real-time PCR—in field detection of Fo. All diseased field samples yielded positive detection results with high reproducibility when subjected to an Fo iiPCR test combined with a rapid DNA extraction protocol compared to Fo iiPCR with an automated magnetic bead-based DNA extraction protocol. Intraday and interday assays were performed to ensure the stability of this new rapid detection method. The results of detection of Fo in diseased banana pseudostem samples demonstrated that this new rapid detection method was suitable for field diagnosis of Fusarium wilt and had high F1 scores for detection (the harmonic mean of precision and recall of detection) for all asymptomatic and symptomatic Fo-infected banana samples. In addition, banana samples at four growth stages (seedling, vegetative, flowering and fruiting, and harvesting) with mild symptoms also showed positive detection results. These results indicate that this new rapid detection method is a potentially efficient procedure for on-site detection of Fo.
