The aim of this study was to develop reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) tests for the detection of chrysanthemum stunt viroid (CSV) in chrysanthemums and potato spindle tuber viroid (PSTV) in potatoes. The sensitivity and the cost effectiveness of the RT-PCR was compared to the cDNA probe in the laboratory for both viroids.
