Cucumber pale fruit disease is caused by viroid. The most notable diseases caused by prions are bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) commonly called mad cow disease in cattle and its analogous variant Cr–Jacob disease (CJD) in humans. Laughing death disease is caused by an infectious protein (prion) found in contaminated human brain tissue.
