Table 2.

Infection rates of two ACLSV hosts following mechanical inoculation of in vitro transcripts obtained from ACLSV FL-cDNA under the T7 promoter synthesized using two different PCR enzymes

Enzyme used for LD-PCR Infected/inoculated plants (% infected)a,b

Chenopodium quinoa Nicotiana occidentalis 37B
Advantage GCc 8/36 (22%) 0/22 (0%)
Phusiond 30/36 (83%) 0/22 (0%)
water inoculation controle 0/12 (0%) 0/12 (0%)

a: the results shown are the sum of two inoculation experiments performed with transcripts deriving from PCR products resulting from different amplification reactions.

b: plants were mechanically inoculated using 5 μg of transcripts per plant.

c: Advantage® GC Genomic LA Polymerase Mix (Clontech)

d: Phusion® High Fidelity DNA Polymerase (Finnzyme)

e: plants were rub inoculated using the DEPC-treated sterile water used to resuspend the in vitro transcripts.
