Influence of Peanut Stripe Virus on Growth, Yield, and Quality of Florunner Peanut¹

Authors: , , , ,

Abstract

The influence of peanut stripe virus (PStV) on growth, yield, and grade of Florunner peanut and percent seed transmissions was determined under field conditions during 1985 and 1986. Plants were artificially inoculated with PStV and infection was confirmed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. Under the conditions of these tests, PStV did not significantly influence growth, yield, or grade of Florunner peanut, and seed infection averaged less than 2 percent.
