strawberry green petal disease (SbGP), caused by phytoplasma infection

Ink painting/drawing of strawberry green petal disease (SbGP), caused by phytoplasma infection, by Candidatus Phytoplasma asteris-related strains, Ca. P. hispanicum-related strains, and Ca. P. australiense-related strains.

The painting shows a strawberry, where leaves have formed at each point where you would usually expect a seed.

The formation of leaves in the fruit makes them unfit for sale.
