Re-evaluation of yam mosaic virus (YMV) detection methods

~ A0667d4a3baf3e9fbd26147afa3c891c.200x200
Accurate and timely detection is vital for mitigation of tuber yield losses resulting from yam mosaic virus (YMV) infection on yam, a major food security crop in West Africa. The observation, from our previous studies, that the triple antibody sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (TAS-ELISA), the most commonly used detection method for YMV, detected the virus in significantly less leaf...
