In vitro and Ecuador-field performance of virus-tested and virus-infected plants of Tropaeolum tuberosum
2009-10-01
Abstract excerpt
Ecuadorean mashua (Tropaeolum tuberosum) germplasm has been found to be widely infected with the potyvirus Tropaeolum mosaic virus (TropMV). The objective of this research was to produce virus-tested (VT) germplasm to compare growth in vitro and in the field with virus-infected (V) germplasm.
