This ELISA (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay) test is a highly specific qualitative serological method used to detect the presence of Arabis mosaic virus (ArMV) in different plant species, including grapevines, hops, raspberry, strawberry, as well as other fruits, vegetables, and ornamental plants. The test works by using antibodies that bind specifically to ArMV antigens, allowing for the identification of infected plants even at early stages of infection. ArMV is classified within the Nepovirus genus, which is characterized by its nematode-mediated transmission, primarily through soil-borne nematodes like Xiphinema species, facilitating the spread of the virus across plant populations. The ELISA assay provides a reliable, rapid, and cost-effective means to monitor and manage ArMV infections, helping to prevent the spread of Raspberry yellow dwarf disease and minimize crop losses.
