PLRV

The start of the lab work on PLRV

We went out to the potato fields near Wageningen to look for PLRV infected potatoes. We thought we found some infected plants, based on the primary symptoms namely smaller sizes of the plants and curled leafs (figure 1).

We contacted Kees Bus and Chris Cuperus, who are experts at the Wageningen University on potato diseases. Judging the pictures, they concluded that these plants were probably not infected by PLRV.

This week we started trial experiments for RNA isolation from potato plants.
