DETECTION OF XYLELLA FASTIDIOSA Xylella fastidiosa is a regulated plant pathogen in many parts of the world. Traditional detection of X. fastidiosa relies on symptom observations, isolation and culturing on selective media although approaches relying on serological and molecular assays have been recently developed and proved to be more suitable for screening large number of samples. Inspections of crops suspected to be infected by X. fastidiosa are fundamental to point out early symptoms of infection. Disease symptoms. Development of symptoms induced by X. fastidiosa vary according to the susceptible hosts, with leaf scorching (LS) being the most common syndrome associate to the bacterial infections in almond, coffee, elm, oak, oleander pear, and sycamore. Indeed, strains of this bacterium are the causal agent of Pierce's disease (PD) of grapes, citrus variegated chlorosis (CVC), phony peach disease, plum leaf scald. Leaf scorch symptoms appear in late summer to early fall and can be distinguished from scorch-like symptoms caused by other factors (drought, salt injury, wilt diseases, etc.) by the presence of a yellow halo between the area of marginal leaf necrosis and green leaf tissue. Infected, symptomatic trees will drop leaves prematurely, and can develop dieback and irreversible decline. PD in grapevine, consists in a sudden drying of large parts of the green leaves, evolving in brown and necrotic and the surrounding tissues become yellow to red. The necrosis is often present at the leaf margins. Scorched (burnt-like) leaves usually drop from the distal and not from the usual basal end of the petiole, leaving bare petioles attached to canes, often well after normal leaf fall. PD can be confused with other disorders such as salt toxicity, boron, copper or phosphorus deficiency. Unlike the majority of the X. fastidiosa diseases, CVC symptoms do not include scorched leaves, but typical irregular chlorosis in mature leaves recognized by interveinal yellowing on the upper side of the leaf and corresponding brownish gumlike material over the side. Indeed, there are several hosts that may carry the pathogen with, but more often without showing symptoms, such as grasses, sedges and trees. In recent years (2009-2011), X. fastidiosa was detected in olive trees in California exhibiting leaf scorch and branch dieback (Krugner et al., 2014). Indeed, in 2013 the bacterium has been consistently associated with a novel olive disease reported in southern Italy (Nigro et al., 2013; Saponari et al., 2013). The disease denoted “olive quick decline syndrome” is characterized by the presence of leaf scorch and scattered desiccation of twigs and small branches, which as time passes, become increasingly severe and extend to the rest of the crown, which acquires a burned look and desiccates in a short while. Besides olives, in the same outbreak area, cherry and almond trees were also found infected by the same strain of X. fastidiosa, identified as X. fastidiosa subsp. pauca strain CoDiRO. Symptoms in both hosts appeared only during summer and consisted of typical leaf scorch alterations. In addition, several ornamental species proved to be susceptible hosts of the CoDiRO strain, with infections causing typical leaf scorching (e.g. in oleander, myrtle-leaf milkwort, myrtle, rosemary) and/or dieback (e.g. Westringia fructicosa, Spartium junceum and Acacia saligna). WORK INSTRUCTION DETECTION OF Xylella fastidiosa Data 18/5/2015 Revision Number 3 Original Page | 3 IstitutoperlaProtezionedellePianteUOSBari Dipartimentodi ScienzedelSuolo,dellaPiantaedegliAlimenti Isolation. Isolation by pathogen cultivation in vitro is the most definitive and direct for pathogen detection and identification because whole bacterial cells and their biochemical and physiological properties are observed. However, cultivation of X. fastidiosa in the laboratory is time consuming, ranging from 3 to 20 days, and labor intensive, particularly when a large number of samples are involved. Serology. Serological methods target the unique properties of bacterial cell surface; tests include ELISA (Sherald and Lei, 1991), dot immunobinding assay (DIBA), western blotting and immunofluorescence. Among them, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) is commonly used and has a high throughput capacity because of the simplicity in sample preparation and the use of the 96-well plate format. In addition, Tissue Blot Immunoassay (DTBIA) can represent a useful diagnostic tool for field based detection (Djelouah et al., 2014). Molecular tests. Molecular techniques include PCR and PCR derivatives including RFLP and RAPD analysis, as well are real-time PCR and loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP). Extraction of X. fastidiosa DNA from culture and host species for PCR and related molecular analyses has been achieved from tissue by both standard commercial column kits and by basic CTAB or, in the case of cultures, Tris-EDTA-Sarkoysl techniques. The available whole genome sequences of X. fastidiosa strains make it feasible to design PCR primers at various levels of specificity. Several specific PCR primer sets are currently available for X. fastidiosa detection including the most thoroughly tested RST31/33 primer set, derived from the RNA polymerase genomic locus, those derived from16S rRNA gene and gyrase genes (gyrB), and those genomic-specific targeting the conserved hypothetical HL protein. The use of LAMP assay for X. fastidiosa has been reported by Harper et al. (2010) and D’Onghia et al. (2014), proved to be highly specific and with a level of sensitivity acceptable for first-instance screening (greater than conventional PCR but lower than real-time PCR). Indeed, the LAMP assay also is rapid, being able to detect X. fastidiosa extracted from infected tissue in approximately one hour.

OBJECTIVE The current ring test aims to evaluate the suitability of novel diagnostic tools for the identification of the CoDiRO strain in olives and other susceptible hosts. Specifically, new serological reagents (antisera against the CoDiRO strain is now commercially available) will be tested and novel approaches will be compared with currently adopted protocols: - ELISA will be performed with 2 commercial kits; - DTBIA assays will be evaluated for the identification of X. fastidiosa in olives; - LAMP PCR will be assessed for the identification of X. fastidiosa in olives and oleander plants. The protocols herein reported refer to procedures described in a peer reviewed journals, either included in the EPPO Diagnostic protocols for regulated pests (PM 7/24(1)) or referring to the most recently developed techniques. It is important to remark the general requirements for accredited diagnostic laboratories: - they shall use only validated procedures for confirming that the examination procedures are suitable for intended use; - the validation shall be as extensive as are necessary to meet the needs in the given application or field of application; - procedures need to be periodically revalidated in view if changing conditions and technical advances (in the light of scientific progress). The present inter-laboratory validation reviewed current procedures for detection of Xylella fastidiosa strain CoDiRO in plant tissues. Molecular and serological tools are evaluated in interlaboratory (collaborative) studies in order to obtain a reliable estimation of the performance characteristics of each method. This work follows two earlier inter-laboratory validations completed in November 2013 and September 2014 (Loconsole et al., 2014a, 2014b). The previous validations included ELISA, conventional and quantitative real-time PCR as means for bacterial detection in infected olive tissues and other susceptible host plants (oleander, almond, cherry and some ornamentals).

During the registration of the samples, the bag (especially those harboring weed samples) must be inspected for the presence of any winged insects and bags contaminated with bugs should be annotated, kept separately from the other sample bags and managed carefully. All sample bags must be stored at 4°C for at least 3h prior processing the plant tissues. Bags annotated as containing bugs should be opened in a dark room under a light trap. 3.4 Tissue Preparation Leaf peduncles and midribs excised from mature leaves are the most suitable tissues for X. fastidiosa detection in perennial crops. For annual herbaceous plants stem and leaf peduncles and veins from basal leaves should be used. For each sample, at least 0,5-0,8 gr of tissue are recovered from 5-10 leaves (according to the leaf size and consistency) and used for DNA extraction or ELISA sap preparation. Samples should be inspected for symptoms and if present symptomatic leaves (showing leaf scorching and necrosis), selected and processed, removing the necrotic and dead tissue. Alternatively, i.e. for DTBIA and/or LAMP (Annexes II, III, VIII) young cuttings are used to prepare the printed membranes or to recover small pieces to be subjected directly to DNA extraction for LAMP assays.

RST31 (forward): 5′-GCGTTAATTTTCGAAGTGATTCGATTGC-3′ RST33 (reverse): 5’-CACCATTCGTATCCCGGTG-3 Two different PCR mix (A and B) can be used. Preliminary tests demonstrated that the GoTaq DNA polymerase (Promega) is the most efficient enzymes for the amplification of the targets in different plant extracts. The use of a layer of mineral oil over the PCR reactions proved to be useful to effectively prevent carryover contamination, especially when a large number of samples have to be processed routinely.
