Detection of recombinant potato virus X-Vps in infected tomato plants. Total RNA was extracted from systemic leaves of plants infected with each PVX-Vp individually (14 days post infiltration) and taken for reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) with corresponding Vp-specific primers. Specific RT-PCR products were detected for Vp23 (650 base pairs, bp), Vp26 (710 bp) and Vp35 (737 bp) in plants infected with PVX-Vp23, PVX-Vp26 and PVX-Vp35, respectively. Primers flanking a multi-cloning site (mcs) of PVX-vector gave a product of ca. 250 bp for the empty vector
