Detection and characterization of Maize chlorotic mottle virus and Sugarcanemosaic virus associated with maize lethal necrosis disease in Ethiopia: an emerging threat to maize production in the region

2017-12-01

Abstract excerpt

Maize Lethal Necrosis Disease (MLND) develops from synergistic co-infection by Sugarcane mosaic virus and Maize chlorotic mottle virus. The disease causes symptoms ranging from leaf tissue mottling and malformed ears to premature plant death. Information on the diversity and transmission of those viruses are limited in Ethiopia. No attempts were made to characterize and identify SCMV and MCMV strains of Oromia and...
