Introduction
• first reported from Florida in the early 1900’s
• First called scaly bark because of stem lesions and bark scaling
• Also named nail head rust because of the typical lesions on the fruits and stems
• In 1926, the disease was called leprosis by Fawcett and Lee

• Disappeared in Florida in the 1960’s: why?
• A freeze, intensive sulfur application reducing the vector populations and thus completely eliminating virus inoculum
![Page 4: April 3013 Presented to the National Plant Disease Recovery System · 2021. 1. 11. · Rica, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Belize •Mexico in 2005: now detected in 3 areas.

Symptoms
• Chlorotic leaf lesions becoming brown with or without necrotic centers
• On leaves and twigs may become flat or slightly raised necrotic areas on twigs and leaves
• On fruit lesions flat or depressed lesions with concentric patterns and gumming
• With abundant lesions abscission of fruit and leaves can occur

• Twig dieback may happen due to extensive lesion development
• Lesions on large limbs may coalesce and cause dieback; may resemble bark scaling similar to citrus psorosis

CiLV-C
CiLV-C is a bipartite positive sense RNA virus.
Isolates from Brazil and Panama have been
sequenced
A rapid diagnostic method using PCR can be used
to detect the cytoplasmic-type of leprosis and
distinguish from the nuclear type
Antibody detection systems have been developed

Transmission (CiLV-C and CiLV-N)
• Graft transmitted with difficulty from symptomatic tissue (cleft grafts)
• Transmitted by Brevipalpus flat mites. B. phoenicis larvae transmit after 24 h access period: nymphs and adults are less efficient ?
• No transovarial mite transmission found
• Spreads to new areas with infected trees and mites

CiLV-C2 Summary
• High-throughput sRNA sequencing identified an
unknown new bipartite, positive sense single stranded
RNA virus
• The structure of CiLV-C2 genome resembled that of CiLV-
C except that it contained a long 3′ UTR and an extra ORF
(p7) in RNA2.
•RNA1 and RNA2 of the CiLV-C2 had only 58% and 49%
nucleotide identities with CiLV-C type
•Phylogenetic analysis revealed close relatedness with
CiLV-C t and placed the new virus as 2nd member of
Cilevirus genus
26

Detection
•CiLV-C2 specific primer pair was designed
for RT-PCR & successfully identified and
differentiated from CiLV-C type
•Continuing developing antibodies
(polyclonal & monoclonal) to expressed viral
proteins for detection

• Nuclear CiLV (virions in nucleus CiLV-N)
• Deep sequencing done and sequences
analyzed
• Identification pending
• Also Hibiscus green spot virus sequenced
in Hawaii also detected in rough lemon
citrus with symptoms similar to leprosis
• Currently 4 different viruses causing
leprosis symptoms

Economic Impact
• No hard economic figures on fruit lost, lost markets, tree decline
• Leprosis has been a serious disease of citrus in Brazil and Argentina since 1930s
• Cost to live with leprosis: 21% increase in production cost;12 extra acaricide sprays per yr.
• Est. $75-100 million is spent on controlling the mites in Brazil (35% chemical costs)
• The disease has spread into Central America
![Page 30: April 3013 Presented to the National Plant Disease Recovery System · 2021. 1. 11. · Rica, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Belize •Mexico in 2005: now detected in 3 areas.

Recovery Plan
• Strict quarantine measures should remain in place at all ports of entry for production citrus, ornamental citrus, and any ornamental plants or weeds that are a host to the leprosis viruses or its mite vectors, especially those originating from South America. Studies should be considered to identify all hosts and
the specific mite species that are vectors.
• Develop and deploy molecular and serological tests that distinguish among the various forms of Citrus leprosis virus
![Page 31: April 3013 Presented to the National Plant Disease Recovery System · 2021. 1. 11. · Rica, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Belize •Mexico in 2005: now detected in 3 areas.

• Monitor citrus groves and commercial nurseries, including distributors that market to homeowners for symptoms of leprosis
• Test acaracide products and treatment schedules to validate control programs for Florida, Texas and California
• Education is needed for all plant pathologists, plant health professionals, extension agents, nursery growers, retailers etc to raise awareness of potentially invasive citrus leprosis.
![Page 32: April 3013 Presented to the National Plant Disease Recovery System · 2021. 1. 11. · Rica, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Belize •Mexico in 2005: now detected in 3 areas.

• Understand the epidemiology of the disease, especially the roles and interactions of mite vectors with the virus and with citrus and other hosts.
• Active pursuit of methods to manage this disease upon introduction is essential in order to avoid the economic consequences experienced by other countries.
