Steps in Diagnostic Marker DevelopmentUse of Genomics for Diagnostics/Detection Sequence based or hybridization-based methods for identificationSequence divergenceDifferences between pathovars,Races, isolatesDifferences between speciesDifferences between generaSteps in Genomics-based Diagnostic Marker Development1. Identify a target gene -amplify and sequence the ITS or -“anonymous DNA” fragment that will be polymorphic -”species-specific”,“pathovar-specific” or “race-specific” geneFactors in decision:Level of specificity neededThroughputCostsTechnology requiredAvailable information2. Determine detection method: sequence, gel electrophoresis, hybridizationSteps in Genomics-based Diagnostic Marker Development-Design primers that uniquely amplify the conserved &/or diverged sequences-Confirm primers with ePCR or BLAST: computational procedure that is used to identify sequence tagged sites (STSs), within DNA sequences. e-PCR looks for potential STSs in DNA sequences by searching for subsequences that closely match the PCR primers and have the correct order, orientation, and spacing that could represent the PCR primers used to generate known STSs. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sutils/e-pcr/-Perform PCR, possibly nested PCR; score for gene (presence/absence or size difference)-QC could involve sequencing the initial productsRibosomal DNA Diagnostic Markers-Obtain rDNA sequences from query genome and nearest relatives-CPGR-Genbank-rDNA databases-Ribosomal DNA Primer database (http://www.psb.ugent.be/rRNA/primers/index.html)-Ribosomal Databasehttp://rdp.cme.msu.edu/-RISSC database (Ribosomal Internal Spacer Sequence Collection) http://miracle.umh.es/rissc/-Align the sequences using a multiple sequence alignment tool-Design primers in the conserved region that flank the ITS-Perform PCR-Sequence the products-Align to query genome and all other sequences available-P. parasitica: Obligate biotroph-Diagnosis is delayed on seedlings until sporulation-Can develop a rapid, inexpensive assay for the pathogen?-Use rDNA as a marker for the species-Survey P. parasitca isolates for size and restriction fragment polymorphism in the ITS1, ITS2, and full ITS sequenceFig. 2 Physical map of Peronospora parasitica rDNA cluster.
