Clubroot caused by is a serious threat to cruciferous crops around the world. The resting spores of are a primary source of infection and can survive in soil for many years. Detection of resting spores in soil is essential for forecasting clubroot prevalence. Detection of has been relying on plant bioassays or PCR-based methods. The loop-mediated isothermal DNA amplification (LAMP) is a promising approach for microorganism detection with the advantage of high sensitivity, accuracy, and convenience in viewing. In this study, we developed a LAMP assay for detection of in soil, roots, and seeds. This method can detect at a minimal amount of 1 fg of plasmid DNA or 10 resting spores in the soil. Compared with conventional PCR, the LAMP was more sensitive in detection of at the lower levels in soil samples. In conclusion, we elaborated a sensitive, accurate, and easy-to-use LAMP assay to detect , which will facilitate sustainable clubroot management and planning.

Background: Point of need diagnostics provide efficient testing capability for remote or austere locations, decreasing the time to answer by minimizing travel or sample transport requirements. Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) is an appealing technology for point-of-need diagnostics due to its rapid analysis time and minimal instrumentation requirements.

Methods: Here, we designed and optimized nine LAMP assays that are sensitive and specific to targeted bacterial select agents including Bacillus anthracis, Francisella tularensis, Yersinia pestis, and Brucella spp.
