Garlic lost its ability to produce true seeds millennia ago, and today non-fertile commercial
cultivars are propagated only vegetatively. Garlic viruses are commonly carried over from …

Commercial garlic cultivars are propagated only vegetatively. Since viral infection is
sheltered in all plant organs, it is transmitted from one generation to another. Bolting …

A method for the detection of Onion yellow dwarf virus (OYDV) and Leek yellow stripe virus
(LYSV), the two most prevalent garlic potyviruses, has been developed that combines IC-RT …

Presence of potyvirus in single garlic (Allium sativum L.) cloves from the same bulb, and in
five single leaves excised from commercial field-grown individual plants was studied using …

Scallion mosaic virus (ScaMV) belongs to the turnip mosaic virus phylogenetic group of
potyvirus and is known to infect domestic scallion plants (Allium chinense) in China and wild …

Viral pathogens comprise approximately half of the emerging diseases in plants, and plant
introductions (including the international movement of seed) are considered to be one of the …

As cuisine becomes globalized, large volumes of fresh produce are traded internationally.
The potential exists for pathogens infecting fresh produce to hitchhike to new locations and …

Garlic viruses often occur in complex infections in nature. In this study, a garlic virus
complex, collected in fields in Brazil, was purified. RT-PCR was performed using specific …

Spanish garlic cultivars like other foreign cultivars are chronically infected by a potyvirus
which we have partially characterised. A possible carlavirus is sometimes found in mixed …

Garlic is an agamic crop naturally infected by a viral complex including Potyvirus, Carlavirus
and Allexivirus which reduces its yield. The current work aim was to characterize GarV-D …
