Cucumber Green Mottle Mosaic Virus
Posted
ABC Rural: On Tuesday 21 April 2015, a story about the discovery of Cucumber Green Mottle Mosaic Virus on a north Queensland watermelon farm incorrectly stated that a Bundaberg based plant nursery had once had the virus on their property. An image of the nursery was published as part of the story. In fact the nursery operation had clearly stated that its own testing had found no trace of the virus. Biosecurity Queensland, while acknowledging it had investigated a number of Queensland nurseries when the virus was first found in the Northern Territory, has not identified any Queensland nurseries with the virus. The story has been corrected, and an editor's note included to explain the changes.
