See:

Of particular interest (to me).

" Even though the virus is reported to spread by an eriophyid mite Phyllocoptes fructiphilus; thorough examination of the infected samples showed absence of the vector."

AND

"The samples were also tested using RT-PCR for the presence of Rose cryptic virus (RCV) and Blackberry chlorotic ringspot virus (BCRV) using specific primers (3,4). The samples tested negative for the RCV and BCRV. "
