In the last 10 years, more than a thousand almond trees have been analysed by the DAS‐ELISA method in the Valencia region. The most frequent virus infecting unselected almond trees was prune dwarf ilarvirus (PDV) (62%), followed by prunus necrotic ringspot ilarvirus (PNRSV) (36%), apple mosaic ilarvirus (ApMV) (14%) and apple chlorotic leafspot trichovirus (ACLSV) (2%). Infection levels of selected trees were 26% for PDV, 15% for PRSV, 0% for ApMV and 5% for ACLSV.
