2007 article

First report of Sweet potato chlorotic stunt virus, a component of sweetpotato virus disease, in North Carolina.

Abad, J. A., Parks, E. J., New, S. L., Fuentes, S., Jester, W., & Moyer, J. W. (2007, March). PLANT DISEASE, Vol. 91, pp. 327–327.

TL;DR: SPCSV isolates from East Africa and West Africa clusters were sufficiently distant phylogenetically to suggest that they may correspond to two different criniviruses, with an average similarity between the populations of 78.14% and an average within the populations above 89%.

Pierce's disease of grapevines: Identification of the primary vectors in North Carolina

PHYTOPATHOLOGY, 97(11), 1440–1450.

By: A. Myers, T. Sutton*, J. Abad* & G. Kennedy* 

TL;DR: This is the first report of these two leafhopper species transmitting X. fastidiosa to grapevines in the Southeast, and these vectors are likely to be important in all winegrowing regions of the Southeast. (via Semantic Scholar)

The molecular population genetics of the Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) genome

MOLECULAR ECOLOGY, 14(1), 53–66.

By: M. Tsompana n, J. Abad n, M. Purugganan n & J. Moyer n

author keywords: Bunyaviridae; founder effect; mutation rate; population expansion; selection; TSWV
MeSH headings : Base Sequence; Genetics, Population; Genome, Viral; Homozygote; Solanum lycopersicum / virology; Models, Genetic; Phylogeny; Reverse Transcriptase Polymerase Chain Reaction; Tospovirus / classification; Tospovirus / genetics
TL;DR: This analysis has defined the geographical structure of TSWV, and identifies specific amino acid sites subject to selection within Bunyaviridae and estimates the level of genetic heterogeneity of a highly pathogenic plant RNA virus. (via Semantic Scholar)

2005 journal article

Tomato spotted wilt virus on potato in eastern North Carolina

AMERICAN JOURNAL OF POTATO RESEARCH, 82(3), 255–261.

By: J. Abad n, J. Moyer n, G. Kennedy n , G. Holmes  n & M. Cubeta n 

author keywords: plant virus detection; Tospoviruses; INSV; Solanum
TL;DR: One isolate of TSWV from potato was selected for vector transmission tests, and the virus was transmitted to potato with tobacco thrips (Frankliniella fusca), but no vertical transmission from infected seed tubers to actively developing potato sprouts, stems or leaves was observed.

1992 journal article

COMPARISON OF THE CAPSID PROTEIN CISTRON FROM SEROLOGICALLY DISTINCT STRAINS OF SWEET-POTATO FEATHERY MOTTLE VIRUS (SPFMV)

ARCHIVES OF VIROLOGY, 126(1-4), 147–157.

By: J. Abad n, M. Conkling n & J. Moyer n

MeSH headings : Amino Acid Sequence; Base Sequence; Capsid / chemistry; Capsid / genetics; Cloning, Molecular; Genes, Viral; Molecular Sequence Data; Plant Viruses / chemistry; Plant Viruses / genetics; RNA Probes / genetics; Restriction Mapping; Viral Structural Proteins / genetics
TL;DR: Although the alignment of the predicted amino acid sequence of the SPFMVRC capsidprotein with those of other potyviruses showed significant homology, hybridization with riboprobes from both the 5′ and 3′ regions of the capsid protein cistron of SP FMV was virus-specific.

DETECTION AND DISTRIBUTION OF SWEET-POTATO FEATHERY MOTTLE VIRUS IN SWEET-POTATO BY INVITRO-TRANSCRIBED RNA PROBES (RIBOPROBES), MEMBRANE IMMUNOBINDING ASSAY, AND DIRECT BLOTTING

PHYTOPATHOLOGY, 82(3), 300–305.

By: J. Abad* & J. Moyer

author keywords: RAPID DIAGNOSIS; SWEET-POTATO VIRUSES
TL;DR: An in vitro-transcribed RNA probe (riboprobe) system was developed to detect sweetpotato feathery mottle virus (SPFMV) in infected plants and provided greater sensitivity of detection of virus in symptomless tissues than MIBA. (via Semantic Scholar)
