This paper describes a PCR assay that has proved to be specific for the detection of AdorGV in Adoxophyes orana. The primer pair AdorGraF/AdorGraR specifically amplifies a 620-bp fragment of granulin gene of AdorGV. Using this assay, we detected AdorGV in larvae of A. orana from the virus-treated orchards, Libeany and Slan. Furthermore, AdorGV was not detected in the larvae of A. orana from natural population not treated with virus.
