“…In recent past, ELISA has become a popular immuno-detection system for virus indexing of mature and tissue cultured plantlets (Gallenberg and Jones, 1985; Table 3) because of its sensitivity, simplicity and speed with which the viruses can be detected and quantified in plant tissues. Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA).…”

“…In our laboratory all commercial varieties, mainly Butterflies, have now been made virus-free. In the case of Alstroemeria, virus tests of the in vitro material grown from meristems gave satisfactory results, as with the potato viruses X and S (Gallenberg & Jones 1985). The in vitro Alstroemeria plantlets were tested twice for the virus(es) present in the starting material, with an interval of at least I month (preferably 2 It is assumed that virus -infected plants yield minor quality flowers, but data were missingas were data on a possible detrimental effect on the yield.…”

An increasing number of ornamental crops are being multiplied in vitro. In this article, the application of meristern culture to plants free from viruses is reviewed and is shown to be useful and cost-effective. First, a literature survey is given on results ofmeristem culture applied to ornamentals and on damage due to virus diseases. Secondly trials and results with lily, Aistroemeria and Delphinium and their viruses are discussed.Virus-free plants have a considerable surplus value compared with infected plants. Additional advantages are that a virus-free crop cannot be a source of contamination for other varieties of the same crop, and that there are no phytosanitary limitations. Virus-free does not mean resistant, however, and re-infection is possible, but can be prevented by strict measures.Meristem culture applied to in vitro cultures oflily, Alstroemeria and Delphinium always yielded a much lower amount of virus-free plantlets than the usual procedure, i.e. meristem culture applied to plants grown in the glasshouse.
