this research was performed in order to study and diagnose potato virus y,potyvirus (pvy), potato virus x,potexvirus (pvx), potato virus s,carlavirus (pvs), potato virus a,potyvirus(pva) and potato leafroll luteovirus (plrv) on tubers and leaves of different potato varieties, namely, solea, safran, floris, proventa, milva, universa, lady olympia, vangogh, and marabel grown in afyon region of tu...

A Reverse Transcription-Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) technique was applied for the detection of Potato leaf roll polerovirus (PLRV) in dormant potato tubers. A primer pair was designed from the coat protein-encoding fragment of the PLRV genome that amplified a 336-bp product. The amplified product was detected in nucleic acid preparations from leaves and tubers of 5 cultivars and from pur...

Viral diseases have been a major limiting factor threating sustainable potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) production in Pakistan. Surveys were conducted to serologically quantify the incidence of RNA viruses infecting potato; Potato virus X (PVX), Potato virus Y (PVY), Potato virus S (PVS), Potato virus A (PVA), Potato virus M (PVM) and Potato leaf roll virus (PLRV) in two major potato cultivars (De...
