The duration of access periods and the availability of virus in source plants are two factors that influence the transmission of barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV) by its aphid vectors. This study was conducted to quantify the relationships among acquisition access period (AAP), virus titer in infected oats, and transmission of three isolates of BYDV from New York by two aphid vector species. Thirteen AAPs, ranging from 15 min to 72 hr, were examined, and virus titer was quantified from each virus source leaf by using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) (...)
