Lactuca sativa
lettuce
Yes
LMV000-4, LMV000-7
Seed as a pathway in lettuce is well documented and accepted.
Yes
ELISA, PCR, Grow out
The NSHS standard test for Lettuce mosaic virus is ELISA.
ELISA
LMV000-5, LMV000-8, LMV000-12, LMV000-2
Indexed and certified seed. Seed production companies utilize a combination of field mitigation and seed testing to control this virus
A heat treatment for seed exists but is impractical for large-scale seed treatment. However, it is adviseable to use this on small amounts of seed such as those used by seed companies for increase and breeding purposes.
