Abstract excerpt
Sugarcane ring spot disease significantly impacts crop yield, necessitating the development of resistant cultivars. This study investigated the pathogenicity, morphology, growth characteristics, and molecular identity of the causal fungal pathogen while assessing the resistance of various sugarcane genotypes. Morphological and molecular analyses identified Curvularia guangxiensis as the primary pathogen....
