Summary Lysolecithin analogues and aminoadamantane were tested in vitro for their antiphytoviral effect on axillary bud cultures of potato infected with potato virus Y (PVY). Ethyllecithin added to the medium (700 mg/l) gave the best therapeutic effect on axenic axillary buds that were 1.67 mm long. Applying that compound, explant size may be increased and lead to virus elimination without thermal treatment. Thus viruses can be eliminated more effectively than with conventional methods.
