Detection of Peach Latent Mosaic Viroid in stone fruits from Chile

Fiore N., Abou Ghanem-Sabanadzovic N., Infante R., Myrta A., Pallás V.

A limited survey was carried out in Chile to check tor the presence of Peach latent mosaic (PLMVd) and Hop stunt (HSVd) viroids in stone fruit orchards. A total of 36 stone fruit samples (12 peaches, 9 plums, 15 cherries) of different varieties were tested by dot-blot hybridisation for the presence of PLMVd and HSVd, from which 11 (6 peach and 5 plum) were positive for PLMVd. All samples were negative for HSVd. This is the first record of PLMVd in Chile and a more extended survey Is needed to evaluate the incidence and impact of this pathogen in the local peach industry.
