LOCALIZATION OF THE SHARKA VIRUS IN PEACH TREES IN REFERENCE TO SANITARY CHECKING |
| Authors: | G. Morvan, C. Castelain |
| Abstract:
Some peach trees infected with sharka in south of France were repeatedly tested on GF 305 seedling with budsticks picked from different branches of the trees. Especially 3 trees of cultivar 'Geronimo' were indexed 15 times during a period of 3 years. The results show an erratic distribution of the virus in the tested trees. The best indexing results were obtained in autumn with chips from the middle of growing branches. | |
