Background: Potato virus Y (PVY) is among the economically most damaging viral pathogen in production of potato (Solanum tuberosum) worldwide. The gene Ry derived from the wild potato relative Solanum stoloniferum confers extreme resistance to PVY.
Results: The presence and diversity of Ry were investigated in wild relatives of potato (298 genotypes representing 29 accessions of 26 tuber-bearing Solanum species) using PacBio amplicon sequencing.
The production and release of nanoparticles and their impacts on living organisms are among the most important concerns in the world. Spirulina platensis was chosen because of its ability to absorb more elements than other algae. Therefore, an experiment was conducted to improve the product quality of spirulina exposed to new type of nanoparticles.
