US bans seed potatoes from PEI and New Brunswick
The USDA barred seed potatoes from Prince Edward Island and New Brunswick to stop PVV N virus spread. The necrotic strain of potato virus Y could affect tobacco tomatoes and peppers and has not been detected in the United States. Seed lots from other Canadian provinces require a certificate and a declaration that they are not PEI 1989 or 1990 seed. Preliminary Canadian testing found the virus on 14 PEI farms and 3 NB farms.
