A one-step multiplex reverse transcription real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) based on species-specific minor groove binding (MGB) probes, was developed for the simultaneous detection, identification, and quantification of three citrus viroids belonging to different genera. Citrus exocortis viroid (Pospiviroid), Hop stunt viroid (Hostuviroid), and Citrus bark cracking viroid (Cocadviroid) cause a variety of maladies in agriculturally significant crops. Therefore, reliable assays for their detection are essential tools for various government and industry organizations implementing disease management programs. Singleplex qPCR primers and MGB probes were designed individually for the detection of the three targeted viroids, and subsequently combined in a one-step multiplex RT-qPCR reaction. A wide host range of woody plants, including citrus, grapevines, apricots, plums and herbaceous plants such as tomato, cucumber, eggplant and chrysanthemum different world regions were used to validate the assay. Single, double and triple viroid infections were identified in the tested samples. The developed multiplex RT-qPCR assay was compared with a previously reported SYBR Green I RT-qPCR for the universal detection of citrus viroids. Both assays accurately identified all citrus viroid infected samples. The multiplex assay complemented the SYBR Green I universal detection assay by differentiating among citrus viroid species in the positive samples. The developed multiplex RT-qPCR assay has the potential to simultaneously detect each targeted viroid and could be used in high throughput screenings for citrus viroids in field surveys, germplasm banks, nurseries and other viroid disease management programs.
