Cymbidium mosiac virus

.
January 2011. An image of a Cymbidium orchid from Sydney, Australia, with chlorotic spots accompanied by black spots on both sides of the leaves. Large yellow blotches are also present, some with black margins. New leaves – arrowed in the picture – have chlorotic spots, too.

An offer from a member in New Zealand to send a simple test strip (works like a DIY pregnancy test) for both CyMV and ORSV. The test (Agdia) were applied and proved to be negative.

Unfortunately, the tests were negative.
