Little Cherry Virus 2 detection

 

Little cherry virus 2 (LChV2) is the causal agent of little cherry disease in sweet cherry and is found in North America and other parts of the world . The pathogen is a mealybug-transmittedvirus and does not induce significant foliar symptoms in most sweet cherry cultivars, but does cause virus-infected trees to yield unevenly ripened small fruits with poor flavor.
