Abstract: | Summary Potato spindle tuber viroid (PSTV) and potato virus Y (PVY) were isolated from plants of cultivar Kennebec with severe necrotic
symptoms in the field. In the greenhouse, severe necrotic symptoms were reproduced only when potato plants were infected either
simultaneously with PSTV+PVY, or with PSTV prior to PVY infection. Thirteen additional potato cultivars were tested in the
greenhouse for this synergistic reaction and eight developed necrotic responses similar to cv. Kennebec. PVY concentration
was significantly higher in doubly infected plants, compared with those infected with PVY alone. |
