Bambusa pervariabilis × Dendrocalamopsis grandis blight is a newly discovered disease in bamboos that has caused substantial economic loss to the affected areas. With the purpose of carrying out rapid detection of Bambusa pervariabilis × Dendrocalamopsis grandis blight caused by Arthrinium phaeospermum during the incubation period, three sets of detection assays were established: seminested PCR, real-time quantitative PCR, and LAMP. The specificity, sensitivity, and effectiveness of these assays were also detected. The results showed that the three assays were able to specifically amplify the target bands from five strains of Arthriniumphaeospermum from different sources, but none of the other 18 strains were able to obtain the specific bands. The sensitivity of the established seminested PCR, LAMP, and real-time quantitative PCR assays were 100, 10, and 1 pg/μL, respectively. The presence of A. phaeospermum could be detected in the early stage of disease using the total DNA of infected hybrid bamboo tissue as a template. The three systems established in this study are of great significance for the early diagnosis and rapid detection of hybrid bamboo blight.
