Coconut cadang-cadang viroid(CCCVD0)

Distribution details in Malaysia

Situation
Current pest situation evaluated by EPPO on the basis of information dated 2020: Present, restricted distribution
Comments
EPPO Reporting Service (2010/120) : closely related viroids could be detected in samples of oil palm (Elaeis guineensis) collected from a commercial plantation in Malaysia. However, further studies are needed to confirm that the viroid found is indeed CCCVd.

Later confirmed by other publications.
