          Abstract

          Worldwide, a substantial economic loss in agricultural products is caused by plant pathogens. The increased losses in agriculture have drawn attention towards the development of miniaturized pathogen detection systems for phytopathology. This review paper's main selling point supports recent research (from 2015 to 2022) and technological advancements in the field of plant pathogen detection. The article discusses in depth important developments in the loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assay, microfluidics, Molecular Imprinted Polymer (MIP) based biosensors, digital droplet PCR (ddPCR), disposable all-printed electronics, and nanoparticle-based sensors for instantaneous pathogen detection in agricultural applications. Utilizing nanoparticles to identify agricultural pathogens is a crucial topic that is explored. A brief on various commercially available detection systems worldwide have been listed. Finally, we discuss the perspective in the development of portable miniaturized systems and novel assay technologies based on advanced nanomaterials. Gold standard techniques: Although Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) and culture counting have been widely used for plant pathogen detection, they are not appropriate for measurements made in the field due to their higher installation costs, lack of portability, need for well-equipped laboratories, and requirement of skilled personnel. Therefore, these recent trends are overtaking the traditional methods in Agri-diagnostics because of their superior performances and suitability for the task.

          Highlights

          • It's critical to identify plant diseases early to avert financial losses.

          • Traditional methods have limitations.

          • Recent advances in plant pathogen detection system.

          • Application of nanotechnology in biosensing system.

          • Commercially available devices for plant disease detection.

          Solutions for a cultivated planet.

          Increasing population and consumption are placing unprecedented demands on agriculture and natural resources. Today, approximately a billion people are chronically malnourished while our agricultural systems are concurrently degrading land, water, biodiversity and climate on a global scale. To meet the world's future food security and sustainability needs, food production must grow substantially while, at the same time, agriculture's environmental footprint must shrink dramatically. Here we analyse solutions to this dilemma, showing that tremendous progress could be made by halting agricultural expansion, closing 'yield gaps' on underperforming lands, increasing cropping efficiency, shifting diets and reducing waste. Together, these strategies could double food production while greatly reducing the environmental impacts of agriculture.

            Recent progress in the development of near-infrared fluorescent probes for bioimaging applications.

            Near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent dyes have emerged as promising modalities for monitoring the levels of various biologically relevant species in cells and organisms. The use of NIR probes enables deep photon penetration in tissue, minimizes photo-damage to biological samples, and produces low background auto-fluorescence from biomolecules present in living systems. The number of new analyte-responsive NIR fluorescent probes has increased substantially in recent years as a consequence of intense research efforts. In this tutorial review, we highlight recent advances (2010-2013) made in the development and applications of NIR fluorescent probes. The review focuses on NIR fluorescent probes that have been devised to sense various biologically important species, including ROS/RNS, metal ions, anions, enzymes and other related species, as well as intracellular pH changes. The basic principles involved in the design of functional NIR fluorescent probes and suggestions about how to expand applications of NIR imaging agents are also described.

              Loop‐mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP): a versatile technique for detection of micro‐organisms

              Summary Loop‐mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) amplifies DNA with high specificity, efficiency and rapidity under isothermal conditions by using a DNA polymerase with high displacement strand activity and a set of specifically designed primers to amplify targeted DNA strands. Following its first discovery by Notomi et al. (2000 Nucleic Acids Res 28: E63), LAMP was further developed over the years which involved the combination of this technique with other molecular approaches, such as reverse transcription and multiplex amplification for the detection of infectious diseases caused by micro‐organisms in humans, livestock and plants. In this review, available types of LAMP techniques will be discussed together with their applications in detection of various micro‐organisms. Up to date, there are varieties of LAMP detection methods available including colorimetric and fluorescent detection, real‐time monitoring using turbidity metre and detection using lateral flow device which will also be highlighted in this review. Apart from that, commercialization of LAMP technique had also been reported such as lyophilized form of LAMP reagents kit and LAMP primer sets for detection of pathogenic micro‐organisms. On top of that, advantages and limitations of this molecular detection method are also described together with its future potential as a diagnostic method for infectious disease.
