A Novel Lineage of Cile-Like Viruses Discloses the Phylogenetic Continuum Across the Family Kitaviridae. [PDF]
An increasing number of plant species have been recognized or considered likely reservoirs of viruses transmitted by Brevipalpus mites. A tiny fraction of these viruses, primarily those causing severe economic burden to prominent crops, have been fully ...

Susceptibility to cyflumetofen in populations of the citrus leprosis mite, Brevipalpus yothersi, from Brazilian citrus orchards. [PDF]
Brevipalpus yothersi, the vector of citrus leprosis virus, showed high susceptibility to cyflumetofen. Its low resistance suggests it is effective, but should be rotated with other acaricides with different modes‐of‐action for sustainable management.

Historical and Contemporary Evidence Confirms a Higrevirus as the Causal Agent of Citrus Zonate Chlorosis in Brazil [PDF]
Citrus leprosis (CL) and citrus zonate chlorosis (ZC) were first described in Brazil in the 1930s. Both diseases, which caused non-systemic lesions primarily characterized by chlorotic and/or necrotic spots, were associated with the presence of ...
