Strawberry virus 4 produces vein chlorosis and necrosis on strawberry (var. Royal Sovereign) and slight chlorotic spotting on wild strawberry ( Fragaria vesca L.). No vector is known. Virus 5 produces leaf curling and vein necrosis on Royal Sovereign and F. vesca. It is transmitted by strawberry aphids ( Pentatrichopus fragaefolii Cock.) which have fed on an infected plant for 1 hr. or more and persists for about 1 hr. in the vector. The names strawberry mottle, mild yellow‐edge, crinkle, vein chlorosis and leaf‐curl virus are proposed for strawberry viruses 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 respectively.
