Citrus leaf rugose virus (CLRV) is a plant pathogenic virus of the family Bromoviridae. It infects a wide range of valuable citrus hosts (Mexican lime, Eureka lemon, and Duncan grapefruit, for example) and while its specific vector is unknown, it can be mechanically transmitted to non-citrus hosts.[1]
