Comparison of SYBR^® Green-based real-time quantitative reverse transcription PCR assays with conventional PCR, for virus detection in field-collected samples from 11 olive orchards, in several regions of Tunisia.

Virus	SYBR Green-based PCR (qPCR) (Virus-positive/total number of samples)	Conventional PCR (RT-PCR) (Virus-positive/total number of samples)
TNV-D and/or OMMV	12/33	10/33
OLV-1	31/33	11/33
OLYaV	20/33	10/33

Conventional PCR results included in Zellama et al. (2018). TNV-D, Tobacco necrosis virus D; OMMV, Olive mild mosaic vírus; OLV-1, Olive latent virus 1; OLYaV, Olive leaf yellowing-associated virus.
