Abutilon yellows virus

Abutilon yellows virus (AbYV (sometimes AYB ) is a virus of the genus Crinivirus.

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

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

Vector
The vector is the banded-wing whitefly, Trialeurodes abutiloneus.
