Fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda) LAMP Detection Kit
Spodoptera frugiperda, the fall armyworm, is an invasive lepidopteran pest originating from the Americas that has spread rapidly across Africa, Asia, and Australia since its first Australian detection in 2020. The caterpillar preferentially attacks maize, sorghum, wheat, and pasture grasses, causing severe defoliation and significant yield losses. In Australia, fall armyworm has established in Queensland, Northern Territory, Western Australia, and New South Wales, posing an ongoing threat to grain and fodder production industries worth billions annually. Larvae are cryptic feeders, burrowing into plant whorls and ears. Management relies on integrated pest management combining biological controls, chemical insecticides, and monitoring. Accurate species identification distinguishes S. frugiperda from related native Spodoptera species.
Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification (LAMP) is a molecular biology technique that copies DNA or RNA at a single, constant temperature. By eliminating the rapid heat cycling required by traditional PCR, this method relies on specialized strand-displacement polymerases to unzip and replicate genetic material.
This biological approach removes the need for expensive, bulky thermal cyclers, allowing assays to run on simple, low-cost heating equipment. Delivering highly sensitive results in just 20 to 30 minutes, isothermal amplification provides a fast, affordable, and exceptionally portable solution for field testing and decentralized point-of-care diagnostics.
The Fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda) LAMP Detection Kit simplifies detection of fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda) nucleic acid by amplifying target DNA at a constant temperature.
- All-in-one box: reagents and plasticware included
- Results in under 30 min
Platform: Genie LITE, Genie III and Genie HT
Application: Nucleic Acid detection of fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda) genes
Target Analyte: Fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda) DNA
