Abstract:Hop stunt viroid (HSVd) is the causal agent of citrus cachexia, which can lead to significant crop losses. As part of a preventive management strategy, it is essential to use healthy plants from a certification program. This study aimed to, healthiness of 17 citrus cultivars was evaluated against HSVd using both biological and molecular diagnostics. For biological diagnosis, Etrog citron (Citrus medica L.) clone Arizona 861 S1 was used as an indicator plant, incorporating negative and positive controls for HSV… Show more
