1. Viral insect-borne plant pathogens have devastating impacts in agroecosystems. Vector-borne pathogens are often transmitted by generalist insects that move between non-crop and crop hosts. Insect vectors can have wide diet breadths, but it is often unknown which hosts serve as pathogen reservoirs and which non-crop host harbours the highest density of vectors.2. In the Pacific Northwest USA, the pea aphid (Acyrthosiphon pisum) is a key virus vector in pulse crops. Despite pea aphid having a large number of potential non-crop plant hosts occuring in the region, no reservoir has yet been identified for the economically-costly pathogen Pea Enation Mosaic Virus (PEMV).3. We addressed these issues by linking field surveys of an aphid vector and plant virus with statistical models to develop risk assessments for common non-crop legumes; in 2018, we completed a 65-site survey where aphids were surveyed in weedy legumes within and outside dry pea fields.4. We quantified the abundance of pea aphids on 17 hosts, and plant tissue was tested for PEMV. Relatively high densities of A. pisum were found in habitats dominated by hairy vetch (Vicia villosa), which was the only legume other than cultivated dry pea where PEMV was detected.5. Our results indicate that V. villosa is a key alternative host for PEMV, and that pest management practices in this region should consider the distribution and abundance of this weedy host in viral disease mitigation efforts for pulses.
