Experimental host range of Citrus leprosis virus C (CiLV-C) [PDF]
Tropical Plant Pathology, 2014 Citrus leprosis (CL) is a serious threat to the citrus industry, especially for sweet oranges. For a long time, Citrus spp. were considered the only susceptible hosts. However, other plant species were also found either experimentally or naturally to be susceptible to Citrus leprosis virus C (CiLV-C).

Membrane Association and Topology of Citrus Leprosis Virus C2 Movement and Capsid Proteins [PDF]
Microorganisms, 2021 Although citrus leprosis disease has been known for more than a hundred years, one of its causal agents, citrus leprosis virus C2 (CiLV-C2), is poorly characterized. This study described the association of CiLV-C2 movement protein (MP) and capsid protein

Transmission of Citrus leprosis virus C by Brevipalpus phoenicis (Geijskes) to Alternative Host Plants Found in Citrus Orchards [PDF]
Plant Disease, 2012 The equivalent of US$75 million is spent each year in Brazil to control Brevipalpus phoenicis, a mite vector of Citrus leprosis virus C (CiLV-C). In this study, we investigated the possibility that hedgerows and windbreaks normally found in citrus orchards could host CiLV-C.

In vitro expression and antiserum production against the movement protein of Citrus leprosis virus C (CiLV-C) [PDF]
Tropical Plant Pathology, 2012 Citrus leprosis, caused by Citrus leprosis virus C (CiLV-C), is currently considered the most important viral disease in the Brazilian citrus industry due to the high costs required for the chemical control of its vector, the mite Brevipalpus phoenicis.

Spontaneous Mutation in the Movement Protein of Citrus Leprosis Virus C2, in a Heterologous Virus Infection Context, Increases Cell-to-Cell Transport and Generates Fitness Advantage [PDF]
Viruses, 2021 Previous results using a movement defective alfalfa mosaic virus (AMV) vector revealed that citrus leprosis virus C (CiLV-C) movement protein (MP) generates a more efficient local movement, but not more systemic transport, than citrus leprosis virus C2 ...

Comparative morpho-anatomical studies of the lesions caused by citrus leprosis virus on sweet orange [PDF]
Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2010 The leprosis disease shows a viral etiology and the citrus leprosis virus is considered its etiologic agent. The disease may show two types of cytopatologic symptom caused by two virus: nuclear (CiLV-N) and cytoplasmic (CiLV-C) types.
