The procedure was based on detection of the presence of a mycoviral-like double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) of 5.3 kbp always found in association with ACD, which is probably caused by a fungus. Specific primers were designed to amplify a fragment of the diagnostic dsRNA. The method will improve routine diagnosis of ACD in Prunus spp.en10.1111/j.1365-3059.2007.01690.xinfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessAmasya Cherry DiseaseCherry TreesDiagnosisDsrnasPrunus AviumChlorotic Rusty SpotDouble-Stranded RnasComplex PatternArticle56610321035Q1WOS:0002507632000132-s2.0-35948953640Q1
