PhytoDETECT® PepMV RT-qPCR Kit

The pepino mosaic virus (PepMV) is a pathogen belonging to the Potexvirus family that represent a serious threat to tomato crops globally and is regulated as a quarantine pest in Europe. Characterized by causing a variety of symptoms such as mosaic, leaf distortion, and stunted growth, PepMV can spread rapidly in greenhouse and open field conditions through mechanical contact and crop management practices. This diagnostic kit provides a reliable and efficient solution for the detection of PepMV, facilitating the timely adoption of preventive measures in agricultural production.

PhytoDETECT® PepMV RT-qPCR Kit enables the detection of PepMV through a real-time quantitative RT-PCR reaction. The kit includes a master mix containing the necessary enzymes, optimized primers and probes, as well as a DNA-based positive amplification control (PAC) to ensure that the PCR amplification is performed efficiently with the supplied components.
