- Observation BCTV-CO and BCTV-Wor were most prevalent.
- Observation BCTV-PeCT was detected for the first time in hemp from Oregon, Colorado, and New Mexico.
- Observation BCTV-PeYD was detected only in New Mexico.
- Observation Hemp associated BCTV strains had high nucleotide diversity.
- Observation Hemp associated BCTV strains showed widespread recombination.
- Observation BCTV was found in 77% of disinfected Elite seeds.
- Observation BCTV was found in 18% of disinfected 791 seeds.
- Observation BCTV was detected in 0.98% of Elite seedlings.
- Observation BCTV was detected in 0.87% of 791 seedlings.
- Observation Elite embryos had BCTV in 41% of samples.
- Observation Elite endosperm had BCTV in 72% of samples.
- Observation Elite seed coats had BCTV in 5% of samples.
- Association The authors interpret seed detections as potential BCTV seed transmission.
- Intervention effect BCTV infection reduced cannabinoid levels in one hemp genotype.
- Intervention effect BCTV infection did not reduce cannabinoid levels in another genotype.
- Observation Beet leafhoppers could not survive on hemp beyond seven days.
- Observation The authors infer beet leafhoppers cannot complete their life cycle on hemp.
