Rabbit Anti-CLRV polyclonal antibody for ELISA. A virus with isometric particles c. 28 nm in diameter, common in many wild and cultivated woody plant species in Europe, the USSR, North America and New Zealand. It is readily transmitted by mechanical inoculation of sap and by seed to progeny of naturally and experimentally infected plants. It has a wide experimental host range and shows many features of nepoviruses but appears not to be transmitted by nematodes. There is evidence that at least some strains may be transmitted in pollen to the plant pollinated.
