Monitoring potato leafroll virus movement in differentially aged potato (Solanum tubersom L.) plants with an immunosorbent direct tissue blotting assay

Creator:

Whitworth, Jonathan L.

Abstract:

Potato leafroll virus (PLRV) causes yield and quality losses in potato. PLRV is identified by plant symptoms and serological tests such as an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). A similar serological test, direct tissue blotting assay (DTBA), was used to detect and monitor PLRV movement in field-inoculated Russet Burbank plants and...
