seasonal phenology of aphis glycines (hemiptera: aphididae) and other aphid species in cultivated bean and noncrop habitats in wisconsin.	the occurrence of aphid-transmitted viruses in agricultural crops of the midwest and northeastern united states has become more frequent since the arrival and establishment of the soybean aphid, aphis glycines matsumura (hemiptera: aphididae). a. glycines is a competent vector of plant viruses and may be responsible for recent virus epidemics in wisconsin snap bean, phaseolus vulgaris l., fields. to determine whether vegetation surrounding crop fields could serve as sources of virus inocula, we ...	2010	21061967
A new satellite RNA is associated with natural infections of cucumber mosaic virus in succulent snap bean.	Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) was consistently recovered from symptomatic snap bean plants during surveys conducted in 2007 and 2008 in central Wisconsin. A large proportion of these CMV-infected plants contained a single-stranded linear RNA molecule consisting of 339 nucleotides and sharing 90-94% sequence identity with other satellite (sat) RNAs of CMV. Comparison of this satRNA sequence with currently available CMV satRNA sequences suggests this to be a novel satRNA.	2011	22038072
