Inoculation of Viral RNA and cDNA to Potato and Tobacco Plants Using the Helios Gene Gun

size of 1.6 m were the best for both plants. The number of micro carriers and amount of viral cDNA tested did not affect infection efficiency.

We suggest the starting conditions indicated in Table 2 to optimize viral RNA or cDNA inoculation of tobacco and potato plants. They have been used successfully for many more recent studies in our laboratory (Hamalainen et al. in press, Rajamaki and Valkonen 1999).
