Yellow vein mosaic of bhendi is caused by a viral pathogen called Yellow Vein Mosaic Virus (YVMV). The infection causes vein-clearing and vein-chlorosis of leaves in the infected plant. The infected plant produces malformed fruits with a reduction in size. The disease can be transmitted from infected to healthy plants via an insect vector called a whitefly.
