Particle lengths were measured at 800-850nm. Partial sequencing has taken place but full sequencing was not complete as of 2008.
Criniviruses are considered a threat to crops, though less so than viruses the other whitefly transmitted virus genus Begomavirus, which are predominant in both number and effect.
