Scientists have developed new technologies for plant disease surveillance

    The global economic loss caused by crop diseases is as high as 60 billion US dollars per year. However, due to the diversity of crop diseases, the detection and prevention of diseases have always lacked common and efficient means and methods.

    Recently, a new biochip developed by China and Dublin University College of Ireland can successfully solve this problem. This new biochip can efficiently and quickly detect hundreds of plant viruses and viroid infections in crops. The chip was jointly developed by Dr. Yin Jun from the University College of Dublin, Ireland, Zhu Shuifang from the Chinese Academy of Inspection and Quarantine, Zhang Yongjiang and Dr. Li Shihan from the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences.

    Dr. Zhu Shuifang, a plant virus detection and quarantine expert, said: "This new biochip can be widely used in agricultural biotechnology. Because of the high efficiency and versatility of biochips, we can detect emerging crop virus and viroid infections and prevent them in time. Disease. This result can also be applied in the import and export of agricultural products, used to prevent quarantine of exotic crop diseases, and will greatly avoid economic losses."
