Abstract
Objectives:
1. To determine if sugarcane mosaic virus (SCMV) presently spreading in the Isis district is the same as or different from SCMV in other districts with respect to virulence in sugarcane and other crop and weed plants.
2. To compare SCMV from Isis with SCMV from other districts with respect to ability to be aphid transmitted.
3. To monitor the seasonal abundance of aphid vectors in the Isis district and to correlate aphid numbers with prevalence of weed hosts, seasonal conditions, etc.
4. To consider strategies for the control of SCMV in the Isis district in light of research results.
