Figure 4: Sensitivity of LAMP assay vs. conventional PCR for detection of Rhizoctonia bataticola using similar concentration of DNA template.

(a) Visual assessment of LAMP assay using SYBR Green I. (b) LAMP assay on the basis of 2% agarose gel electrophoresis. (c) Result of conventional PCR using ITS1 and ITS4 primers. M GeneRulerTM 100 bp Plus DNA Ladder; lane 101–10−7 indicated the DNA concentration in LAMP reaction starting from 10 ng (101 ng) to subsequent 10 fold diluted DNA up to 0.1 fg (10−7 ng), respectively.
