Cicadulina Bipunctella
''Cicadulina'' is a leafhopper genus in the tribe Macrostelini. ''Cicadulina'' species are vectors of the maize streak virus, a disease which is a sporadic but severe in sub-Saharan Africa. The cause is a geminivirus which is persistently transmitted by ''Cicadulina'' leafhoppers. The disease is also transmitted to ''Urochloa panicoides ''Urochloa panicoides'' is a fodder grass originating in Southern Africa.

Urochloa Panicoides
''Urochloa panicoides'' is a fodder grass originating in Southern Africa. Description This annual grass has decumbent or upright stems up to a meter long. It may root where its lower nodes contact the substrate. The leaves have linear or lance-shaped blades up to 25 centimeters long. They are hairless to somewhat hairy, and they may have hairs lining the edges. The inflorescence is composed of up to 10 racemes, each up to 7 centimeters long. The spikelets are solitary or paired. ''Urochloa panicoides'' can be confused with '' Urochloa setigera'', but the morphology of the spikelet is slightly different. Distribution This grass is native to southern Africa. It has naturalized elsewhere, including Australia, Argentina, India and the United States. Ecology It is most common on moist grasslands and lakesides up to an altitude of 2200 meters. Usage This grass is often used as a fodder for cattle and horses. It is now known as a weed and a potential seed contaminant. Diseases and ...

Maize Streak Virus
''Maize streak virus'' (MSV) is a virus primarily known for causing maize streak disease (MSD) in its major host, and which also infects over 80 wild and domesticated grasses. It is an insect-transmitted maize pathogen in the genus ''Mastrevirus'' of the family ''Geminiviridae'' that is endemic in sub-Saharan Africa and neighbouring Indian Ocean island territories such as Madagascar, Mauritius and La Reunion. The A-strain of MSV (MSV-A) causes sporadic maize streak disease epidemics throughout the maize growing regions of Africa. MSV was first described by the South African entomologist Claude Fuller who referred to it in a 1901 report as "mealie variegation". The development of conventionally resistant maize varieties has been a priority since the 1950s in Kenya, Nigeria, South Africa and elsewhere, with a good deal of success: however, there are several genes associated with resistance, and breeding is complex. Transgenically resistant or genetically modified maize varietie ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
