Abstract

(...) Total numbers of thrips were relatively high for R. parviflorus and R. procerus compared to red raspberry, R. spectabilis, and R. ursinus. Results of pollen washes and serological blocking of pollen surfaces indicated that RBDV was located on and probably in the pollen grains of R. parviflorus. Onion thrips (Thrips tabaci) did not transmit RBDV when they were allowed to feed on caged Chenopodium quinoa plants that had been dusted with RBDV-infested R. parviflorus pollen
