Interactions between Potato virus X (PVX) and Potato virus S (PVS) were studied in potato plants, and isolates of PVX were inoculated to potato cultivars from four continents to identify occurrence of PVX resistance genes. Mixed infection with PVX and PVS increased the titer of PVS and enhanced expression of foliar symptoms in primarily and secondarily infected plants of ‘Royal Blue’. PVX isolates belonging to strain groups 1 and 3 (WA1+3) or 3 (XK3 and TAS3) were sap and graft inoculated (1 to 3 isolates each) to 38 cultivars and one breeding line. Presence of extreme PVX resistance gene Rx was identified in four Australian (‘Auski’, ‘Billabong’, ‘Flame’, and ‘Ruby Lou’) and two European (‘Mondial’ and ‘Rodeo’) cultivars, and in a clone of North American ‘Atlantic’. PVX hypersensitivity gene Nx was identified for the first time in two Australian (‘Bliss’ and ‘MacRusset’), four European (‘Almera’, ‘Harmony’, ‘Maxine’, and ‘Nadine’), and one North American (‘Ranger Russet’) cultivars, and in Australian breeding line 98-10713. PVX hypersensitivity gene Nb was identified for the first time in one Australian (‘White Star’), five European (‘Innovator’, ‘Kestrel’, ‘Kipfler’, ‘Laurine’, and ‘Royal Blue’), and one North American (‘Shepody’) cultivars. Probable ancestral sources of the resistance genes found in different cultivars were identified. Thus, although PVX resistance genes often occur in parents used in crosses, knowledge of their occurrence in parents and cultivars is often lacking. On sap inoculation, systemic hypersensitive phenotypes that caused shoot death often developed in cultivars with Nx but not necessarily in all shoots. This phenotype caused severe necrotic symptoms in infected tubers. In some instances, passage through cultivars with Nb separated strain group 3 from mixed isolate WA1+3.

The spatial and temporal distribution of Potato virus S (PVS) and Potato virus X (PVX) was studied in two trials within each of four commercial fields of seed potato var. Russet Burbank in Tasmania, Australia. In the first trial (plots) 20 leaflets were collected from each of 49 plots (each approximately 8 m wide by 10 m long), with plots arranged in a 7-×-7 lattice. In the second trial (transects), leaflets were collected at 1-m intervals along seven adjacent, 50-m long rows. The mean incidence of PVS increased during the season by 5.2% in one of four plot trials and 25.5% in one of four transect trials. The mean incidence of PVX increased during the season by 10.1%, in one of two transect trials. Spatial Analysis by Distance IndicEs and ordinary runs analysis detected aggregation of PVS infected plants early in the season in one and two fields respectively, suggesting transmission during seed-cutting or during planting. An increase in PVS incidence mid- to late season in one field was associated with aggregation of PVS along, but not across rows, which may be related to the closer plant spacing within rows and hence increased potential for mechanical transmission along rows. Results suggested limited spread of PVS and PVX occurred within crops during the season. Accepted for publication 9 April 2007. Published 26 July 2007.

The genotypes of potatoes bred by Falenki Breeding station were studied for the presence of resistance genes markers to the following pathogens: Globodera rostochiensis, Globodera pallidа, Synchytrium endobioticum, potato virus X (PVХ) and potato virus Y (PVY). The method of multiplex PCR analysis was used. The varieties Shurminsky 2, Alisa, Viza, Chayka, Ognivo, Darik, Gloriya, Golubka, Virazh and a promising variety sample 56-09 were studied. In most (8 out of 10) genotypes, marker linked to the Sen1 gene of resistance to S. endobioticum was identified. DNA marker of the G. rostochiensis resistance gene (H1) and the G. pallida resistance gene marker (Gpa2) were found in six genotypes. The marker of the PVX resistance gene (Rx1) was detected in the varieties Shurminsky 2, Alisa, Chayka, Golubka, and Virazh. It has been established that none of the studied potato genotypes carries markers RYSC3, Ry186, YES3-3A linked to the PVY resistance genes. Although in the field, resistance was detected in the samples Chayka, Darik, Virazh, Alisa. Molecular markers linked to the largest number of resistance genes studied (H1, Gpa2, Sen1, and Rx1) were identified in the varieties Shurminsky 2, Golubka, and Virazh. Among the DNA markers used in the work, the data of potato genotype assessment using markers of virus resistance genes (PVX, RYSC3, Ry186, YES3-3A) were less consistent with field observations. The use of molecular markers makes it possible to determine the presence of resistance genes and assess the prospects of a sample in a short period of time, but, at the same time, requires careful choice of a DNA marker that is highly correlated with the manifestation of the trait.

Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is the fourth most important food crop in the world. It is the most economically valuable and well-known member of the plant family Solanaceae. Potato is the host of many pathogens, including fungi, bacteria, Phytoplasmas, viruses, viroids and nematodes, which cause reductions in the quantity and quality of yield. Apart from the late blight fungus [Phytophthora infestans (Mont.) de Bary] viruses are the most important pathogens, with over 40 viruses and virus-like pathogens infecting cultivated potatoes in the field, among which Potato virus Y (PVY), Potato leaf roll virus (PLRV), Potato virus X (PVX), Potato virus A (PVA), Potato virus S (PVS) and Potato virus M (PVM) are some of the most important viruses in the world. In this review, their characteristics and types of resistance to them will be discussed.

The research was carried out, in the period 2002-2004 in order to determine the presence and distribution of potato viruses at 12 different locations and on 9 different potato varieties grown in Montenegro. The research included collecting of samples in seed potato crops and testing of six economically important potato viruses: Potato leaf roll virus (PLRV), Potato virus Y (PVY), Potato virus X (PVX), Potato virus S (PVS), Potato virus A (PVA) i Potato virus M (PVM). Using the direct enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (DAS-ELISA) and commercial antisera specific for six potato viruses, it was found that PVY was the most frequent virus during the three-year research period. The second frequent virus was PVS, followed by PVA, PLRV, PVM and PVX. Single and mixed infections were detected, and the most prevalent were the single infections of PVY. Also, in the period 2002-2004, PVY had the highest distribution and the number of present viruses was different at different localities and on different potato varieties. Further investigations were related to detailed characterization of the most prevalent virus (PVY), which is at the same time economically the most important one. Serological characterization of PVY was performed utilizing DAS-ELISA kit with commercial monoclonal antibodies specific for detection of the three strain groups of PVY, and the two strain groups - necrotic (PVYN/PVYNTN) and common (PVYO), were identified. Necrotic strains were prevalent in 2002 and 2004, while in 2003 PVYO was the most frequent strain in virus population. The presence of stipple streak strain (PVYC) was not detected in any of the tested samples.
