First report of Citrus tristeza virus in Bangladesh.

In Bangladesh, citrus is an important fruit crop that is becoming more commonly cultivated in commercial plantations. In March 2019, we observed yellowing, vein clearing, and mild mosaic symptoms in citron (Citrus medica). Based on systematic serological and molecular analyses of the symptomatic leaf samples, the Citrus tristeza virus (CTV) was identified. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of CTV and any citrus virus in Bangladesh. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
