S. KOMOCHI; T. GOTO; N. OSHIMA Journal of the Japanese Society for Horticultural Science 1966. doi:10.2503/jjshs.35.269

Other claims from this paper (19)

Intervention effect L-alone inoculation caused systemic infection and severe leaf symptoms within two to three weeks.
Intervention effect April 30 L-alone inoculation checked tomato growth.
Intervention effect The vaccine slightly reduced early growth, followed by recovery.
Intervention effect May 27 L-alone inoculation markedly decreased fruit setting in the first and second trusses.
Intervention effect June 23 inoculation decreased fruit setting in the third and fourth trusses.
Observation Flower fruit-setting ability appeared recovered about a month after L inoculation.
Observation Fruit-setting failure was confined to trusses blooming or about to bloom during systemic L infection.
Mechanism The authors interpreted fruit-setting failure as a shock reaction directly caused by virus infection.
Intervention effect April 30 L-alone inoculation produced worse fruit setting than the non-inoculated control.
Mechanism Reduced fruit setting was attributed tentatively to declining assimilation caused by severe leaf symptoms.
Intervention effect L infection reduced average fruit weight in this experiment, unlike some previous experiments.
Intervention effect Vaccine protection against L damage was nearly complete when challenge occurred more than a month later.
Intervention effect L challenge seven days after vaccination produced severe leaf symptoms about nine days before first blooming.
Mechanism The vaccine appeared to inhibit the shock reaction despite virus symptoms.
Intervention effect April 30 L-alone inoculation yielded 27% less fruit weight than vaccine alone.
Intervention effect May 27 L inoculation yielded 16% less fruit weight than vaccine alone.
Intervention effect June 23 L inoculation yielded 24% less fruit weight than vaccine alone.
Intervention effect Vaccine-only plants yielded as much as the partly naturally infected control.
Intervention effect L challenge more than a month after vaccination yielded as well as vaccine alone.
