- Abstract
The study was carried out at Texas A&M University Potato Breeding and Variety Program in 2015, and the same study was repeated for the second time in 2016 for the reliability of the results. The five potato viruses chosen were PVX, PVY, PVS, PVM and PLRV because of their ease of inoculation by mechanical transmission. Five virus positive potato selections, virus that were obtained from the Texas A&M University Potato Breeding and Variety Program and Colorado State University Program, were used in this study. Control (tissue culture alone), chemotherapy, thermotherapy and combinations of chemotherapy+thermotherapy were used to eradicate the viruses. The control (tissue culture alone) application did not give successful results in virus eradication. Chemotherapy showed the greatest success in clearing PVM (75%-66.667%) in both years. Thermotherapy application showed the highest success in eradication of PLRV with 58.30% in the first year and 75.00% in the second year. Combining thermotherapy and chemotherapy was effective in eliminating both PVY and PLRV.
