Plant diseases caused by phytopathogenic viruses represent a group of diseases (virosis) that can cause high economic losses and become a limiting factor in achieving full fertility and a quality yield. The transmitting ways of the viruses are multiple, and the main way to combat these diseases is the production, or use of healthy, virus-free seed and planting material. Since viruses cause the most significant damage on woody plants, fruits and vines, it is important to carry out a plant virus screening test in order to avoid multiple harmful effects in both aspects, the material and in the aspect of the time it takes for these plant species to grow and achieve a full fertility. One of the most common viruses infecting stone fruit species and causing significant economic damages is the Prune dwarf virus (PDV). Given the general presence in the world and high destructive potential of PDV, its diagnostic and identification methods are described in detail in this study.
