Abstract
Peanut (groundnut, Arachis hypogaea) clump disease, characterized by severe stunting and clumping, was first described from India in 1927 and subsequently from West Africa in 1931. The causal agent in West Africa as well as in India was identified as a virus, Peanut clump virus (PCV) and Indian peanut clump virus (IPCV), respectively. Annual losses to the peanut crop due to PCV and IPCV were estimated to exceed US$38 million in the late 1990s. Pecluviruses also cause diseases on several dicotyledonous and monocotyledonous crops.
