Symptom-Based Panel

Leaf Spot Panel

About this product

The Leaf Spot Pathogen Panel™ is designed to test for pathogens associated with foliar damage, including leaf spots, expanding lesions, and localized necrosis. This multiplex qPCR pathogen panel assay screens for Botrytis cinerea, Fusarium solani, and Pythium myriotylum in a single test, reducing guesswork, cost, and diagnostic time.

  • Fusarium oxysporum
  • Botrytis cinerea
  • Pythium myriotylum

The Leaf Spot Pathogen Panel™ is a multiplex molecular diagnostic assay developed to investigate infectious causes of leaf spotting, blotches, expanding lesions, and dead tissue formation that cannot be attributed to physical damage or environmental stress alone. These symptoms often signal active infection and can progress rapidly if not accurately identified.

This panel simultaneously detects:

  • Botrytis cinerea, a fungal pathogen capable of initiating leaf lesions and spreading quickly under favorable humidity and airflow conditions.
  • Fusarium solani, which may contribute to localized necrosis, tissue collapse, and progressive foliar damage.
  • Pythium myriotylum, a root-associated pathogen that can indirectly cause foliar symptoms through systemic stress and impaired water uptake.

Using sensitive and specific qPCR technology, this panel provides reliable detection from a single sample with quick turnaround times. The Leaf Spot Pathogen Panel™ supports early differentiation between infectious and non-infectious causes of foliar damage, enabling timely and targeted management before lesions escalate.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know to test your plants with us.

What is MF Detect™ Precision+?

MF Detect™ Precision+ is MyFloraDNA’s proprietary RT-qPCR (TaqMan-based) diagnostic technology designed for ultra-high sensitivity, reliability, and actionable pathogen detection.

What sensitivity does MF Detect™ Precision+ achieve?

MF Detect™ Precision+ can detect pathogen genetic material down to approximately 2 copies, enabling true early detection.

Why is ultra-high sensitivity important in plant diagnostics?

It allows detection of infections before visible symptoms appear, reducing pathogen spread, crop loss, and operational risk.

Is MF Detect™ qualitative or quantitative?

MF Detect™ is quantitative and reports CT values and, when applicable, estimated copy numbers.

What chemistry does MF Detect™ use?

MF Detect™ uses TaqMan RT-qPCR chemistry for high specificity and low background noise.

How fast are results delivered?

Typically within 1–3 business days from sample arrival.
