Ranaviruses are large nucleocytoplasmic DNA viruses that infect ectothermic vertebrates. Here we report the results of a scientometric analysis of the field of ranavirology for the last 10 years. Using bibliometric tools we analyse trends, identify top publications and journals, and visualise the ranavirus collaboration landscape. The Web of Science core collection contains 545 ranavirus-related publications from 2010 to 2019, with more publications produced every year and a total of 6830 citations. Research output is primarily driven by the United States and People’s Republic of China, who together account for more than 60% of ranavirus publications. We also observed a positive correlation between the average number of co-authors on ranavirus publications and the year of publication, indicating that overall collaboration is increasing. A keyword analysis of ranavirus publications from 2010 to 2019 reveals several areas of research interest including; ecology, immunology, virology/molecular biology, genetics, ichthyology, and herpetology. While ranavirus research is conducted globally, relatively few publications have co-authors from both European and Asian countries, possibly because closer countries (geographical distance) are more likely to share co-authors. To this end, efforts should be made to foster collaborations across geopolitical and cultural boundaries, especially between countries with shared research interests as ultimately, understanding global pathogens, like ranaviruses, will require global collaboration.

The telial stage of Gymnosporangium exiguum (2) on Ashe juniper (Juniperus ashei) was observed in Bandera County, TX, in April and May 1999 after rain events. Symptomatic plants with multiple lesions were found at low frequencies in dense J. ashei populations. Orange telia formed on scales and bark and on 2- to 3-mm-diameter twigs and became nearly inconspicuous when dry. No hypertrophy was observed. Previously reported telial hosts include J. californica and J. excelsa cv. Stricta in California; J. mexicana and J. scopulorum in Oklahoma; J. virginiana in Texas; and J. deppeana var. pachyphloea in Oklahoma and Texas (1). An aecial stage identified as G. exiguum has been observed for many years on native hawthorns (Crataegus crus-galli, C. greggiana, C. mollis, C. stevensiana, C. tracyi, C. turnerorum, C. viridis var. desertorum, and several natural hybrids) in Bandera, Bexar, Edwards, Gillespie, Kendall, Kimble, Real, and Uvalde counties, Texas. Prominent roestelioid aecia were observed on hawthorn leaves, petioles, fruits, peduncles, thorns, and, less often, on twigs. In two experimental plantings of hawthorns in Bandera County, rust severity was rated as low to moderate in six populations of C. greggiana and hybrids; moderate in two populations each of C. stevensiana and C. tracyi; moderate to severe in three populations of C. crus-galli and hybrids; and severe in one population each of C. mollis and C. viridis var. desertorum. G. exiguum was previously reported on a Crataegus sp. in Texas and on Heteromeles arbutifolia in California (1). Flowers, fruits, plant forms, and drought tolerances are characteristics of some endemic hawthorns that provide landscape and wildlife advantages. G. exiguum causing rust disease may limit the ornamental potential of highly susceptible hawthorn species in southwest Texas. Inconspicuous infections on susceptible ornamental Juniperus spp. also could have phytosanitary implications.

‘Covington’ is an orange-fleshed, smooth-skinned, rose-colored, table-stock sweetpotato [Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam.] developed by North Carolina State University (NCSU). ‘Covington’, named after the late Henry M. Covington, an esteemed sweetpotato scientist at North Carolina State, was evaluated as NC98-608 in multiple state and regional yield trials during 2001 to 2006. ‘Covington’ produces yields equal to ‘Beauregard’, a dominant sweetpotato variety produced in the United States, but it is typically 5 to 10 days later in maturity. ‘Covington’ typically sizes its storage roots more evenly than ‘Beauregard’ resulting in fewer jumbo class roots and a higher percentage of number one roots. Total yields are similar for the two clones with the dry matter content of ‘Covington’ storage roots typically being 1 to 2 points higher than that of ‘Beauregard’. ‘Covington’ is resistant to fusarium wilt [Fusarium oxysporum Schlect. f.sp. batatas (Wollenw.) Snyd. & Hans.], southern root-knot nematode [Meloidogyne incognita (Kofoid & White 1919) Chitwood 1949 race 3], and moderately resistant to streptomyces soil rot [Streptomyces ipomoeae (Person & W.J. Martin) Wakswan & Henrici]. Symptoms of the russet crack strain of Sweet Potato Feathery Mottle Virus have not been observed in ‘Covington’. The flavor of the baked storage roots of ‘Covington’ has been rated as very good by standardized and informal taste panels and typically scores as well or better in this regard when compared with ‘Beauregard’.

The Globodera tabacum complex infects tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) fields in the United States. In August 2001, plants of flue-cured tobacco cv. K326 from a field of the La Vera Region of Spain displayed a premature wilting and yellowing of foliage, but the roots looked healthy. In the laboratory under the microscope, nematode cysts were observed on the roots. At harvest in September 2001, soil and root samples were collected to identify the nematode and to quantify the population in the soil. Identification of the nematode was based on morphological characteristics of second-stage juveniles collected from cysts and perineal patterns of cysts recovered from the roots (2). Cysts were collected from roots, and second-stage juveniles were extracted from crushed cysts. The nematode population was extracted from the soil and quantified as described by Barker (1). The nematode population was identified as Globodera tabacum. Soil density of the nematode was 5,307 cysts per liter of soil, 64,286 eggs per liter of soil, and 16,071 second-stage juveniles per liter of soil. To our knowledge, this is the first report of G. tabacum complex in Spain. References: (1) K. R. Barker. Nematode extraction and bioassays. Page 19 in: An Advanced Treatise on Meloidogyne.
