Control of mosaic disease using microbial biostimulants: insights from mathematical modelling [PDF]
A major challenge to successful crop production comes from viral diseases of plants that cause significant crop losses, threatening global food security and the livelihoods of countries that rely on those crops for their staple foods or source of income.

Evaluation of susceptibility of cassava germplasm to cassava mosaic disease
Cassava mosaic disease (CMD) caused by geminiviruses is one of the important diseases of cassava Manihot esculenta Crantz causing severe yield loss. Use of resistant varieties is the most feasible measure to manage virus diseases. Eleven germplasms of cassava including Kirikavadi, MU51 and CARI 555 that are recommended and released for cultivation by ...

First report of Sri Lankan cassava mosaic virus and Cassava Mosaic Disease in Laos.
Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) has been traditionally grown as a subsistence crop in Laos, but in recent years cassava cultivation in this country has expanded and is becoming a 'cash crop' for farmers (Malik et al., 2020). This also means that cassava vegetative seed (stakes) is rapidly multiplied and distributed.

Genetic diversity and phylogeography of cassava mosaic geminiviruses in Madagascar. [S02-12] [PDF]
Cassava mosaic disease (CMD) caused by cassava mosaic geminiviruses (CMGs, Geminiviridae) is a major threat on cassava production throughout Africa. In Madagascar, severe symptoms with high prevalence of CMD were observed.

In vitro propagation of three mosaic disease resistant cassava cultivars [PDF]
Abstract Background Cassava is a staple food for over 800 million people globally providing a cheap source of carbohydrate. However, the cultivation of cassava in the country is facing to viral diseases, particularly cassava mosaic disease (CMD) which can cause up to 95% yield losses.

ABSTRACT Tomato yellow leaf curl China virus (TYLCCNV) is a major agricultural pathogen and primary model for circular single‐stranded DNA (cssDNA) virus studies. The infectious clones of TYLCCNV and other cssDNA viruses are usually constructed as two tandem copies of the small viral genomes in Agrobacterium‐mediated T‐DNA vectors.
