Abstract
Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) is an effective method for detecting the presence of viroids in plant tissue. Viroid RNA is converted to cDNA and amplified to detectable levels, making it a fast and useful detection tool, even when the viroid is present at low levels. Methods of viroid detection using conventional RT-PCR are described in this chapter.Entities:
