“…This includes decline in American elm (Mayhew and Epstein, 1971); tree decline or death in cherry, in particular in situations of co-infection with Prunus necrotic ringspot virus and Prune dwarf virus (Cropley, 1961;Jones, 1985;Büttner, 2011); and decline and death of European walnut (Juglans regia) scions grafted onto Northern California black walnut (J. hindsii), "Paradox" hybrids (J. hindsii × J. regia), Chinese wingnut (Pterocarya stenoptera) or other sensitive Juglans spp. Although CLRV remains symptomless or causes only foliar symptoms in many cultivars of J. regia, it causes tissue necrosis (resulting in a black or brown line of necrotic tissues) at the scion-rootstock junction of susceptible graft combinations, eventually girdling and killing the tree (Mircetich et al, 1980;Rowhani and Mircetich, 1988).
