N2  - The vegetative growth of young peach trees was reduced greatly in the growing season following a dual infection with Prunus necrotic ringspot and prune dwarf viruses which caused the disease known as 'peach rosette and decline'. Ninety-two days after bud burst, the dry weight and leaf area of cv. Elberta scions were reduced by c. 60&#37; as a result of infection, while the reduction in cv. Golden Queen was about 93&#37;. The latter cultivar thus appears to be the less tolerant of infection by this virus disease.
