------- Detected in a Prunus serrulata cv. Shirofungen showing leaf symptoms in the Clemson University Fruit Research Farm, as well as in several ornamental flowering cherry trees (Prunus x yedoensis cv. Yoshino). It is suspected that the virus was transmitted by 'chip-budding' to the P. serrulata tree from these ornamental Prunus trees.
