| Abstract: | The effect of a mild strain of PVX on the yield of the recently released potato variety Hudson was determined in split-plot experiments at three locations in New York. Two other varieties, Katahdin and Bake-King, were included for comparison. The yield data compared were total tuber yield, tuber yield > 2 1/4 in. and > 1 7/8 in. diameter and tuber number> 2 1/4 in. and > l 7/8 in. diameter. The effect of the mild strain was not great. Hudson appeared to be more tolerant to the mild strain of PVX than the other two varieties although the variety X virus interaction was very low. |
