摘要

Berry crops are highly valued worldwide, yet systemic pathogens, especially viruses, pose major production constraints. Amongst all virus elimination methods, thermotherapy remains the most widely used because of its relative simplicity and broad applicability. This review evaluates thermotherapy for virus elimination in berry crops, synthesizing evidence from classic and modern studies. We condensed descriptive findings, highlighted mechanisms underlying virus replication suppression, and expanded the discussion on factors shaping efficiency. We also analyzed integration with complementary approaches such as meristem culture, chemotherapy, and cryotherapy. This review underscores the evolving role of thermotherapy as both a stand-alone and integrated approach to secure clean plants and ensure sustainable berry production under increasing pathogen pressures.
