Field-grown tubers of potato were examined for infection by Tobacco rattle virus (TRV) and consequent production of corky ringspot or spraing symptoms. A microarray study identified genes that are differentially expressed in tuber tissue in response to ...

Potato mop-top virus and its protist vector, Spongospora subterranea, cause internal and external damage to potato tubers that make them unmarketable. Currently, there are no effective control methods to eliminate these soilborne and seedborne pathogens,

Detection and Confirmation of Potato mop-top virus in Potatoes Produced in the United States and Canada [PDF]
Potato mop-top virus (PMTV) was detected in potatoes grown in the United States and Canada during surveillance testing by a reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) targeting the coat protein gene in RNA3. Out of 3,221 lots of seed and ware potatoes that were tested, 4.3% were positive for PMTV.

Draft Genome Resource for the Potato Powdery Scab Pathogen Spongospora subterranea
The Plasmodiophorida (Phytomyxea, Rhizaria) are a group of protists that infect plants. Of this group, Spongospora subterranea causes major problems for the potato industry by causing powdery scab and root galling of potatoes and as vector for the Potato

Potato mop-top virus (PMTV) is a significant pathogen causing potato “spraing” disease worldwide. The PMTV 8K protein functions as a weak viral suppressor of RNA silencing (VSR), has viroporin activity, and plays a role in pathogenicity by promoting ...

First Report of Potato mop-top virus on Potato from the United States
Potato mop-top virus (PMTV) is a tripartite pomovirus vectored by the powdery scab plasmodiophoromycete Spongospora subterranea pv. subterranea (1). PMTV occurs on potato (Solanum tuberosum) in Europe, the Andes, Asia, and Canada. Internal necrotic arc and fleck tuber symptoms (“spraing”) may reduce commercial acceptance of some cultivars (3).
