Induction of EPRV in kalanchoe in result of vegetative propagation
Project
Project code: JKI-EP-08-2201
Contract period: 01.01.2012
- 31.12.2013
Purpose of research: Applied research
Rather raised from seeds many ornamentals as well as horticultural crops like potato and onion are produced by vegetative propagation (tubers, bulbs, cuttings, tissue culture). Techniques for early and efficient detection of latent or asymptomatic virus infections are thus required for screening stock plants before mass amplification to avoid virus spread. These aspects were investigated in the genus Carlavirus. 21 out of 43 members carry the term 'latent' in their name. Carlaviruses are known to cause asymptomatic infections in a number of horticultural and floral host plants.
