Article Abstract

Mosaic is one of the most important sugarcane diseases, caused by single or compound infection of (SCMV), (SrMV), and/or (SCSMV). The compound infection of mosaic has become increasingly serious in the last few years. The disease directly affects the photosynthesis and growth of sugarcane, leading to a significant decrease in cane yield and sucrose content, and thus serious economic losses. This review covers four aspects of sugarcane mosaic disease management: first, the current situation of sugarcane mosaic disease and its epidemic characteristics; second, the pathogenicity and genetic diversity of the three viruses; third, the identification methods of mosaic and its pathogen species; and fourth, the prevention and control measures for sugarcane mosaic disease and potential future research focus. The review is expected to provide scientific literature and guidance for the effective prevention and control of mosaic through resistance breeding in sugarcane.

The co-infection of maize chlorotic mottle virus (MCMV) and sugarcane mosaic virus (SCMV) causes maize lethal necrosis (MLN), which seriously affects the yield and quality of maize. Ubiquitination is one of the most important protein post-translational modifications. However, the role of ubiquitination modification in regulating maize resistance to viral infection remains largely unknown.

Accurate estimation of plant disease severity is pivotal for effective management and decision-making. Field experiments were conducted to understand the correlation and predict the yellow mosaic disease severity in yard-long beans using visible image indices. A total of 45 visible / Red Green Blue (RGB) indices were derived from the RGB images and correlated with disease severity, and also used as inputs for predicting disease severity using nine machine learning (ML) models.

Maize lethal necrosis (MLN) is a devastating disease of maize caused by synergy between two viruses: maize chlorotic mottle virus (MCMV) and a potyvirus, often sugarcane mosaic virus (SCMV). Throughout the 2010s, severe MLN outbreaks occurred in East Africa, including Kenya, Rwanda, and Ethiopia. Previous studies have shown extensive sequence diversity among SCMV isolates collected from this region.

Three viruses causing mosaic-like symptoms in sugarcane and related grasses, namely sorghum mosaic virus (SrMV), sugarcane mosaic virus (SCMV), and sugarcane streak mosaic virus (SCSMV), have been reported in Louisiana since 1919. In this study, complete genome-coding sequences (9168-9240 nt) were obtained for mosaic viruses from 36 symptomatic leaf samples of cultivated and wild sugarcane and one sample of silver grass. These samples represented historical diseased plants that were collected in Louisiana from the 1940s to the early 2020s.

Sugarcane is the most important crop for sugar production. Sugarcane streak mosaic virus (SCSMV) triggered sugarcane mosaic disease can lead to substantial reductions in both yield and sucrose content. In the process of disease prevention and control, target pathogen detection technology is indispensable.
