Description
Characterised by Brunt in 1976, it is found in Western Europe in Narcissus, Nerine and bulbous irises. It is often accompanied by other plant viruses, and is transmitted by aphids. It produces light and dark green mottling near the leaf tips.[1][3]
Taxonomy
This Macluravirus should not be confused with the similarly named Narcissus common latent virus which is a Carlavirus, and is sometimes incorrectly referred to by the name Narcissus latent virus.

gollark: The only people above moderator would be the admins. There are not really many of them.
gollark: Amoeba probably can't spread through air very practically, at least. So pandemicization seems unlikely.
gollark: PyroBot dislikes it, however.
