PVX (Potato Virus X) Complete ELISA Kit - 5000 reactions
Synonyms: Potexvirus ecspotati
PVX is a virus infecting species of the Solanaceae and 15 other plant families. It is readily sap-transmissible and is transmitted in nature mainly by mechanical contact. It occurs world-wide in potato-growing areas.
In potato the virus causes a mild mosaic or is latent; yield losses are 10 to 20%. In tobacco it causes mottling or necrotic spotting, in tomato it causes mosaic and slight stunting. In all three hosts the severity of symptoms greatly increases in mixed infections with other viruses, e.g. potato virus Y.
Complete PVX ELISA Kits also available in 96 reactions, 480 reactions, and 960 reactions kit sizes.
Specificity and sampling instruction
These reagents were made against a potato isolate of PVX multiplied at Agroscope, the Swiss centre of excellence for research in the agriculture and food sector and react with a broad spectrum of PVX isolates (i.e., from Europe and South America) in DAS-ELISA. For all potato reagents, we recommend our extraction buffer for testing leaf samples at a ratio of 1:20 (w/v). For testing sprouted tuber samples (sprouts of potato), a special extraction buffer, containing egg albumin (ovalbumin), is used at a ratio of 1:10 to 1:20 (w/v;). This product has been developed in cooperation with Agroscope, the Swiss centre of excellence for research in the agriculture and food sector.
