Overview

This factsheet describes peach latent mosaic viroid, including signs of infection, management, and prevention of the disease.

Symptoms of peach latent mosaic viroid are often delayed by about 2 years from the time of infection, so the disease is sometimes unrecognized. This publication explains the symptoms of the disease, how it is transmitted, and how to prevent it.
