Presence of Citrus tristeza virus in Croatia

Forty-five samples, mostly Satsumas, from 11 orchards, 2 nurseries and a collection planting were tested by ELISA or IC/RT-PCR for the presence of Citrus tristeza virus (CTV). The preliminary survey confirmed the presence of CTV in 17 out of 45 field samples that were mostly asymptomatic, as expected in plants grafted onto trifoliate rootstocks. For assesing the sanitary status propertly, a more systematic approach including indexing should be applied.
