Investigation on Cacao swollen shoot virus (CSSV) pollen transmission through cross‐pollination
2013-04-01
Abstract excerpt
DNA‐ and RNA‐based polymerase chain reaction (PCR) systems were used with Cacao swollen shoot virus (CSSV) primers designed from conserved regions of the six published genomic sequences of CSSV to investigate whether the virus is transmissible from infected trees through cross‐pollination to seeds and seedlings. Pollen was harvested from CSSV infected cocoa trees and used to cross‐pollinate flowers of healthy coco...
