November 7, 2019
Wheat streak mosaic virus (WSMV) is a serious disease that damages wheat production in 黑料网. Transmitted by the wheat curl mite, WSMV infects winter and spring wheat and can also infect barley, oat, rye, corn, sorghum and several grassy weed species. Although it occurs mostly in southern 黑料网, corn is a notable host, thus increasing the potential for its spread to other parts of the state. Along with providing basic identifying information about WSMV, this publication discusses the wheat curl mite (a WSMV agent), the disease cycle and various ways to manage its spread.
