Cocoa necrosis virus (CoNV) is a plant pathogenic virus of the genus nepovirus that infects Theobroma cacao en natura causing cacao necrosis disease.[2] CoNV is considered synonymous with Strain S of cacao swollen shoot virus.[3] Unlike Cacao swollen shoot virus, it is not transmitted by mealybugs nor vectored by aphids, beetles, or leafhoppers that also commonly infest cacao.[2][4][5] It is serologically, distantly related to Tomato black ring virus and very distantly related to Grapevine chrome mosaic virus.[6]
