Abstract
Virus-like particles (VLP) were detected in healthy appearing spawn of A. bisporus by serology and EM. These VLP also were detected in mycelial cultures and sporophores produced from the indexed spawn. Serologic indexing of spawn was a reliable method for detecting mushroom VLP.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
