American Journal of Potato Research Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

Standardized RT-PCR procedures were developed and validated for detection of Alfalfa mosaic virus (AMV), Impatiens necrotic spot virus (INSV), Tobacco rattle virus (TRV), Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV), Potato leaf roll virus (PLRV), Potato mop top virus (PMTV), Potato virus A (PVA), Potato virus M (PVM), Potato virus S (PVS), Potato virus X (PVX), Potato virus Y (PVY), and Potato spindle tuber viroid (PSTVd). Under the same conditions the O, N, NTN, and N:O strains of PVY could be differentiated using previously published multiplex primers.

Resumen

Se desarrollaron y validaron procedimientos estandar RT-PCR para la detección de Virus Mosaico de la Alfalfa (AMV), Virus de la mancha necrótica de Impatiens (INSV), Virus Cascabelero del Tabaco (TRV), Virus de la Marchites manchada del jitomate (TSWV), Virus del Enrollamiento de la Hoja de Papa (PLRV), Virus de la proliferación apical de la Papa (PMTV), Virus A de la Papa (PVA), Virus M de la Papa (PVM), Virus S de la Papa (PVS), Virus X de la Papa (PVX), Virus Y de la Papa (PVY) y Viroide del Tubérculo Fusiforme de la Papa (PSTVd). Bajo las mismas condiciones se pudieron diferenciar las variantes O, N, NTN, y N:O del PVY usando iniciadores múltiples previamente publicados.
