abstract potato virus a (pva) is one of the members of genus potyvirus. pva particles are straight to slightly flexuous rods and contain of single stranded rna. in the spring and summer of 2005, sampling accomplished to determine potato virus a from potato fields in northern and razavi khorasan provinces. samples with mosaic, shining and rolling of leaves carried in ice chamber to laboratory fo...

abstract potato virus s is a member of the genus carlavirus in the family of flexiviridae, with curved filamentous particles 650×12 nm and positive single stranded rna genome. this virus is one of the most common viruses that infected all of potato varieties in the world. susceptible host species belong mainly to the families solanaceae, chenopodiaceae and amaranthaceae. potato virus s transmit...

In recent years, Potato Virus Y has reemerged as a serious disease problem in many potato production areas in the northern United States and eastern Canada. Three recently introduced cultivars, ‘Russet Norkotah’, ‘Shepody’, and ‘Silverton’ are widely grown and express mild or no symptoms when infected with PVY. The lack of symptoms often associated with these cultivars and novel, recombinant st...

Potato viruses cause enormous economic loss in agriculture production. Potatoes can be infected by a number of different viruses that affect negatively the harvest and the tuber quality. Direct and effective drugs against plant virus diseases are still not available and control is only applied as agricultural measures and pesticides against virus vectors. Potato virus Y (PVY) is transmitted by ...

A reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) based protocol with a pair of potato virus Y coat protein gene specific primers was found to be more sensitive method for the PVY detection in infected tobacco leaf and potato tuber tissues than conventional enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) or nucleic acid spot hybridization (NASH) based methods. It was found in our studies tha...

BACKGROUND Viral diseases are the second most significant biotic stress for sweet potato, with yield losses reaching 20% to 40%. Over 30 viruses have been reported to infect sweet potato around the world, and 11 of these have been detected in China. Most of these viruses were detected by traditional detection approaches that show disadvantages in detection throughput. Next-generation sequencing...

The effect of temperature on the rate of systemic infection of potatoes (Solanum tuberosum L. cv. Chu-Baek) by Potato virus Y (PVY) was studied in growth chambers. Systemic infection of PVY was observed only within the temperature range of 16°C to 32°C. Within this temperature range, the time required for a plant to become infected systemically decreased from 14 days at 20°C to 5.7 days at 28°C...

Potato Genebank of the Universidad Austral de Chile (UACh) is an important gene bank in Chile. The accessions collected all over the country possess high genetic diversity, present interesting agronomic and cooking traits, and show resistance to biotic and abiotic stress. A particularly interesting subgroup of the gene bank includes the accessions collected in the South of Chile, the Chilota Po...

potato virus y (pvy) and potato leafroll virus (plrv) are two major viruses which reduce 10-90 percent of yield and quality of potato tubers. in the present study, the efficiency of different methods, including meristem culture, thermotherapy followed by meristem culture and electerotherapy followed by meristem culture in two cultivars (agria and marfona) infected by plrv or pvy were evaluated....

We present the first complete Sweet potato virus G (SPVG) genome from sweet potato in East Timor and compare it with seven complete SPVG genomes from South Korea (three), Taiwan (two), Argentina (one), and the United States (one). It most resembles the genomes from the United States and South Korea.
