SET REACTIVOS ELISA, TSWV PARA 480 ENSAYOS, 1 KIT

TSWV (7) belongs to the serogroup I of the genus Tospovirus (see Tab. 1) and is transmitted in nature by various thrips species (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) in a persistent manner, but can also readily be transmitted by mechanical inoculation. The virus occurs worldwide and has a wide host range. Its main vector is the western flower thrips Frankliniella occidentalis. More than 800 different plant species have been reported to be susceptible to TSWV. The virus causes significant yield losses in a large number of economically important crops e.g. groundnut, lettuce, papaya, pea, potato, sweet pepper, tobacco, tomato and in many ornamental crops, including alstroemeria, begonia, chrysanthemum, cyclamen, dahlia, gerbera, gloxinia and impatiens. Disease symptoms range from chlorosis, mottling, stunting and wilting to severe necrosis of leaf, stem and fruit tissues. Synonyms: BR-01, CNPH1 , TSWV-L3.
