dc.description.abstractTissue culture is a widely adopted technology for the propagation of virus-free banana plants. Survey for assessment of major viruses viz., BBTV, BSV, CMV and BBrMV in banana growing regions in southern Karnataka with tissue culture and sucker propagated banana gardens revealed the highest mean per cent incidence of BBTV (3.41%) followed by BBrMV (0.19%). The mean incidence of virus diseases was less (0.66%) in tissue culture gardens compared to gardens grown using suckers (2.65%). The mean incidence of virus disease was less (1.04%) in gardens grown using the main crop compared to ratoon established gardens (2.13%). Colorimetric detection for banana major viruses were standardized using nucleic acid fluorescent dyes viz., SYBR Green, Thiazole orange and VeriPCR to the PCR amplified product of BBTV, BSV, CMV and BBrMV infected samples produced bright green in case of SYBR green and VeriPCR whereas bright orange in case of thiazole orange. HNB dye changed the colour from pink to violet in infected samples of BBTV, BSV, CMV and BBrMV when applied before amplification. Standardization of HNB dye concentration for detection of BBTV indicated that 3mM @ 2µL, 5mM @ 2µL, 8mM @ 1µL and 2µL produced distinct violet with PCR product from infected samples and pink with healthy samples. HNB dye of 3mM at the rate of 2 µL was suitable for the detection of BBTV infected samples. The colorimetric detection methods in the current study are cost-effective and quick as they do not require the additional steps of electrophoresis and gel documentationen_US
