Propagate the isolates
Inoculate to a set of test plants
Nicotiana debneyi
Nicotiana tabacum

Nicotiana glutinosa
Capsicum annum
Chenopodium quinoa
Chenopodium amaranticolor
Lycopersicon esculentum
Systemic infection
Symptomatology
Temperature
Low temperature
(16° - 18° C )
Increase in symptom intensity
Delay in systemic infection
High temperature
(22° - 25° C )
Attenuation of symptoms
Enhanced systemic infection
How about genetic variability ?
97 – 99 % similarity
Conclusions
Finnmark
Distribution of PMTV ?
Troms
Why ?
o Movement of planting material
o Resistant varieties
o Symptomless infection
o Seed potato testing

Variability of PMTV in Norway
Conclusions
According to test plant assays (Yes)
However, little variability in the 8K
Does this explain why sometimes we can
have symptomless infections?
Is it worth it to start giving ”strain” names
to these PMTV isolates?

Incidence of spraing ?
Some varieties seem to be more succeptible to spraing,
But does not correlate with resistance
Climatic conditions
Doesn’t seem to be due to a specific strain

What is really PVYNTN
?
•Is a phisiological response to PVY (in general) in:
Specific potato varieties under specific
evironmental conditions
Var. Atlantic (summer)
Necrotic
ringspots
PVYNTN SB32
Potato mop top virus
PMTV
We also have strains
Not useful to
Use the «strain concept» Biological strains
Genetic strains
All can generate rings
Depends on the climatic
Conditions and/or variety!

Screening for TRV
Wait some weeks and evaluate symptoms
Huge task ! 60 fields
Detection of TRV in weed roots
Why not trying to detect TRV from weeds fround in the field?
Farmers ar very efficeint in removing weeds
How about the roots ?
PCR detection is not so difficult
RNA extraction
RNA
PCR amplification
3. Third step: device how to collect samples
Select a number of samples to test
1. First step: RNA extraction for roots
RNA
2. Second step: PCR from RNA extracted from the roots
