Investigates the effect of plant nutrition on virus detection, to find out whether this plays a role in virus symptom expression and severity. Describes how Apple stem grooving virus and Tobacco ringspot virus were inoculated onto a range of herbaceous indicator species grown in potting mix supplmented with differing rates of slow-release fertiliser.
