Importance of leprosis in Brazil
Leprosis: main citrus viral disease Vector present in orchards througout the yearCauses severe symptoms, particularly in sweet orange varieties
Increase in production costs (pruning, anticipated renewal of the orchard…)Acaricides
- US$ 60 to 100 millions/ year - Environmental cost

History: etiology of the disease
The fungal hypothesis (Fawcett, Spegazzini)
Association with Brevipalpus mites (Frezzi, Vergani)
The mite-transmitted pathogen theory- ringspot symptoms (Bitancourt)- graft transmission (Knorr; Chagas & Rossetti)- TEM visualization of particles (Kitajima et al.)- mechanical transmission (Colariccio et al.)

Transmission biology
-All active stages transmit (Chagas et al., 1984)
-Transovarial transmission (Knorr, 1968)
- Vector-virus interaction: persistant propagative (Rodrigues, 2001)

More surprises… Several of the “truths” about leprosis are now shown to be incorrect
* CiLV-C and CiLV-N: completely different viruses
* CiLV-C is not a rhabodovirus
* Host range: not only Citrus spp.
* CiLV-C-mite interaction: persistant circulative
* The virus is not a mite virus that is able to colonize plants
Unusual and challenging disease
