Rapid and specific detection of Yam mosaic virus by reverse-transcription recombinase polymerase amplification por Silva, G., Bömer, M., Nkere, C., Kumar, P. Lava, Seal, S.E.

“…The RT-exoRPA assay has, however, several advantages over the RT-PCR; positive samples can be detected in less than 30 min, and amplification only requires a single incubation temperature (optimum 37 ? C). These features make the RT-exoRPA assay a promising candidate for adapting into a field test format to be used by yam breeding programmes or certification laboratories…”
