Citrus Yellow Vein-associated Virus (CYVaV): Highlights from a California Field Trial

First spotted in California citrus back in the 1950s, citrus yellow vein-associated virus (CYVaV) has finally been given a closer look in this study. During a three-year replicated field trial at the University of California - Riverside, we confirmed CYVaV infections mainly in lemon and mandarin trees, but found no signs of it spreading through pollen or aphids. Infected trees showed only mild yellow vein symptoms and stayed healthy overall, with no significant drop in fruit quality or yield. While CYVaV currently seems like a minimal threat, we’re continuing to keep watch to ensure our citrus remains safe from any future surprises. This recorded presentation was prepared for delivery at the XXIII conference of the International Organization of Citrus Virologists (IOCV, https://iocv.ucr.edu/) in Mildura, Australia held March 16-20, 2025.
