Eugene V. Ryabov; Andrew Love; Lesley Torrance Annals of Applied Biology 2026. doi:10.1111/aab.70140
Other claims from this paper (4)
- Observation PLRV causes leafroll disease in potato across all potato-growing regions and significant tuber yield and quality losses.
- Observation PLRV is transmitted to potato by aphid vectors.
- Intervention effect Insecticide control of vector aphids formerly contained PLRV incidence.
- Association Changes in agronomic practices and a warmer environment have contributed to PLRV re-emergence as a potato production threat.
