Abstract
Plant viruses threaten the yield and quality of crops. Efficient and affordable pathogen diagnosis is crucial to regulate the trade of plant materials and for disease management and control. Sequencing technology based on Illumina platform is a powerful tool for the identification of plant viruses, but it requires long and expensive protocols, cumbersome equipment, and significant cost per library. Nanopore sequencing technology, developed by Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT), is a recent sequencing system very easy to use, suitable for onsite-field detection, and associated with low costs. Coupled with its portability, nanopore technology has great application prospects in the field of quick detection of plant viruses. In this protocol, we expose in detail the application of cDNA-PCR nanopore-based sequencing for the detection of plant viruses.
