Molecular identification and phylogenetic characterization of A-strain isolates of maize streak virus from western Ethiopia

Abstract: The A-strain of Maize streak virus (MSV) causes maize streak disease (MSD) which is a major biotic threat to maize production in sub-Saharan Africa. Previous studies have described different MSV strains of economic importance from southern and eastern African countries, and how eastern African regions are hubs for MSV diversi cation. Despite these efforts, and lack of extensive sampling, there is limited knowledge about the MSV-A diversity in Ethiopia. Here, eld sampling of maize plants and wild grasses with v… Show more

“…Of the 11 known MSV strains A through to K, only the A-strain causes severe maize streak disease (MSD) with stunting and leaf striation symptom. MSV-A being the major MSD causing agent is believed to have become adapted to the maize plant (Ketsela et al 2022).…”
