A wilt and eventual dieback disease ot the forage legume Stylosanthes guianens which occurs widely in Colombia and Brazil, is described. The causal agent of the wilt disease is identified as Lasiodiplodia theobromae, a virulent, unspeciaIized, facultative, wound pathogen with worldwide distributi...

African oil palm ringspot virus (AOPRV) had been previously described as a fovea-like virus associated with a lethal disease of African oil palm (Elaeis guineensis) in South America. The original report was based on partial sequence and a distant relationship between AOPRV and Apple stem pitting ...

The complete nucleotide sequences of RNAs 1 and 2 of Rice stripe necrosis virus (RSNV) were determined and compared to the corresponding genomes of all sequenced, rod-shaped plant viruses. The genome organisation of RSNV RNA1 and RNA2 is nearly identical to that of Beet necrotic yellow vein virus...

Prevalence of six viruses in potato seed tubers produced in informal seed system in the North West Region of Cameroon.
Plant viruses cause major losses to several agricultural and horticultural crops around the world. Unlike other plant pathogens, there are no direct methods available yet to control viruses and, consequently, the current measures rely on indirect tactics to manage the viral diseases. Hence, metho...
The genetic improvement of banana and plantain has focused on breeding for resistance to black sigatoka. This has been quite successful, but the distribution of improved hybrids has been impeded by the outbvreak of Banana streak virus (BSV). Integration of viral sequences in Musa genomes make it ...

In sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), many crops grown by subsistence farmers are severely affected by virus diseases. These diseases are distinct from each other and have various means of spread and perennation. Many are widely distributed in the region. The causal agents of several virus diseases have b...
