Test Results for Fall 2024 Dahlias
Samples were analyzed at AGDIA, Inc. (Elkhart, IN) and at UTAH State Diagnostic lab (Logan, UT). Positive pools of 5 plants (light pink) found by Agdia were tested by the individual plant at Utah State University. Utah tests for DMV Holland and Portland viruses separately, while Agdia reports them as a composite test for Dahlia common mosaic virus and dahlia mosaic virus. Note, when tabs give differing results, I use the positive result regardless of which lab reported the result. All plants tested for TSV by Utah, were also tested for TSWV and were negative.
