Abstract

A Survey of Victorian Foundation Seed S. subterranea. Samples were obtained from batches of apparently healthy Foundation Seed. Potatoes for Spore Balls of Spongospora Random samples of 10 tubers from each of several subterranea. potato cultivars of Foundation Seed were obtained in Oc­ R.
