Abstract
The genera Allexivirus and Mandarivrus belong to the family Alphaflexiviridae of the order Tymovirales. So far two species of the genus Mandarivirus, (Indian citrus ringspot virus and Citrus yellow vein clearing virus) and four species of the genus Allexivirus have been reported from India. Biological characterization and the full genome sequencing of both the mandariviruses have been generated. However, only partial genomic sequences have been reported for the allexiviruses in India. The transmission of mandarivirus occurs mainly through the vegetative propagation, while allexiviruses have been reported to be transmitted by eryophid mites. This chapter describes the symptoms, transmission, diagnostics, genome characterization and management of mandariviruses and allexiviruses reported in India.
