Abstract

Isolates of grapevine yellow speckle viroid (GYSVd-1) were found in Saraburi province, having 366 and 367 bp in size, and showed 96% sequence homology with Australian GYSVd-1. GYSVd cDNA probe was proven to be sensitive and highly specific to GYSVd-1. This cDNA probe could detect very
low amount of the viroid even in the symptomless samples. Thus, GYSVd-1 cDNA probe would be very useful for plant quarantine or viroid free certification schemes, since the large number of samples could be tested for viroid infection with high accuracy.
