Approaches based on next-generation sequencing (NGS) coupled with bioinformatics tools have been developed for detecting viruses and viroids infecting herbaceous and woody plants. Here we describe a protocol to extract nucleic acids from citrus bark and enrich them in double-stranded RNAs. These preparations can be efficiently used for generating cDNA libraries that, after pair-end sequencing and bioinformatics analyses, allow efficient identification of the viroids infecting the source plant.

Abstract

Approaches based on next-generation sequencing (NGS) coupled with bioinformatics tools have been developed for detecting viruses and viroids infecting herbaceous and woody plants. Here we describe a protocol to extract nucleic acids from citrus bark and enrich them in double-stranded RNAs. These preparations can be efficiently used for generating cDNA libraries that, after pair-end sequencing and bioinformatics analyses, allow efficient identification of the viroids infecting the source plant.
