Abutilon yellows virus

Abutilon yellows virus
Virus classification
Group: Group IV ((+)ssRNA)
Family: Closteroviridae
Genus: Crinivirus
Species: Abutilon yellow virus

Abutilon yellows virus (AbYV (sometimes AYB[1]) is a virus of the genus Crinivirus.[2]

Particle lengths were measured at 800-850nm.[3] Partial sequencing has taken place but full sequencing was not complete as of 2008.[4]

Criniviruses are considered a threat to crops, though less so than viruses the other whitefly transmitted virus genus Begomavirus, which are predominant in both number and effect.[5]

Vector

The vector is the banded-wing whitefly, Trialeurodes abutiloneus.[6]
