Red raspberry, Rubus idaeus, is known to be infested by at least six species of eriophyid mites. Among them, Phyllocoptes gracilis is the only known vector of a raspberry virus, namely the raspberry leaf blotch virus (RLBV). This study aimed to investigate the population density of mites on raspberry floricanes and the association of eriophyid mites, RLBV, and leaf blotch symptoms.
