Quantifying the yield risk of planting CMV, AMV & BYMV infected lentil seed in the Southern region
Tender ID: 454756
Tender Details
Tender Description
There is a data gap relating to the plant health impacts and actual yield risk from sowing lentil seeds with known levels of infected cucumber mosaic virus (CMV), alfalfa mosaic virus (AMV) and bean yellow mosaic virus (BYMV). As the yield risk is unknown, growers are not seed testing and are unable to make informed choices on planting virus infected lentil seeds.
This investment will provide the Southern region lentil growers, advisers and commercial seed businesses with a ‘Risk Matrix Guide’ that informs on the quantified yield risk of planting various levels of CMV, AMV & BYMV infected lentil seed with the anticipated long-term outcome of reducing the levels of the viral diseases CMV, AMV and BYMV in the cropping system.
