Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) is the type member of the tospovirus genus and causes significant losses in a wide range of economically important ornamental and vegetable crops worldwide. The nucleocapsid gene, located on the ambisense S RNA segment of TSWV was expressed in Escherichia coli using pET-32a as vector and correct expression of recombinant protein was confirmed by Western blot using an anti-TSWV monoclonal antibody (MAb). The recombinant protein was purified using Ni-NTA agarose and the purified protein was used for the production of MAbs. Three murine MAbs against the recombinant nucleocapsid protein were produced. Triple antibody sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and immunocapture RT-PCR methods were then established for reliable and efficient detection of TSWV using the produced MAbs.
