Twenty-five citrus samples from 16 sites in the Lower Rio Grande Valley and Corpus Christi areas of Texas were indexed for Citrus tatter leaf virus (CTLV). Sixteen samples gave characteristic CTLV symptoms when biologically indexed onto citrumelo or citrange indicators. Six of the samples could also be readily detected by ELISA using the original donor tissue with CTLV and Apple stem grooving virus (ASGV) ELISA. No tissue samples reacted with Citrus tristeza virus antibodies. Indexing on

Five samples were further indexed on a range of citrus indicators in 1997, the type and extent of symptoms observed are described.
