Sugarcane mosaic disease

Sugarcane mosaic disease is an agriculturally/economically significant pathogenic plant infection caused by sugarcane mosaic virus (SCMV), sorghum mosaic virus (SrMV), sugarcane streak mosaic virus (SCSMV), or any combination of the three.[1] The disease savaged the North American/Caribbean sugar industry in the 1920s.[2] The introduction (circa 1927) and propagation of Indonesian strains of sugar cane called Profestation of Java 213 and POJ 36 saved the business of sugar culture in Louisiana.[3]
