Presence of Peach Latent Mosaic and Hop Stunt Viroid in Lebanon

Abou Ghanem-Sabanadzovic N., Choueiri E.

A survey was carried out in Lebanon to check the presence of Peach latent mosaic viroid (PLMVd) and Hop stunt viroid (HSVd) in stone fruit orchards. A total of 180 stone fruit samples (50 peaches and 130 apricots) of different varieties were tested by dot-blot hybridisation for the presence of PLMVd and HSVd. PLMVd was detected in 17 samples belonging to native and international peach varieties (Babcock, Chikhani, Springtime, Nectarose, Dixired) collected from Mount Lebanon, North Lebanon and Békaa VaIley. HSVd was found in 36 samples all belonging to native apricot varieties (Baiadi, Sindiani, Dehabi and Aajami) collected from Northern area of the Békaa Valley.
