State Scientists Study Fruit Virus Diseases
Vigorous attempts to identify viruses causing diseases of freestone fruits are under way with the Agricultural Experiment Station at Pennsylvania State University. John S. Boyle and Fred H. Lewis collaborate on virus diseases of cherries plums peaches apples and pears. Losses of cherries may reach about 25 percent of annual crops. Researchers use seedling cucumber plants to diagnose yellows in cherry trees and seek virus reservoirs and improved recognition methods.
