It is shown, that in commercial potato in many pharms of the Far East of the Russian Federation the complex of viruses, viroids and phytoplasms is distributed. On series of cultivars the symptoms of the new disease caused by coinfection PSTV and YBK ntn strain are found. This strain which is earlier not revealed in crops of a potato in last years has received significant spreading. Infection rate of a potato is substantially connected by viruses to number of carriers - an aphid and epilachna. The extreme situation has developed in connection with virus infection rate of production of small-scale farms which deliver the basic part of a commercial potato on the market. The virus-free potato which without fail should be tested on presence of viruses and PSTV by a complex of various methods (biological, immunochemical and molecular-biological) is recommended to introduce more widely.
