Genetic variability in coat protein gene of sugarcane mosaic virus in Pakistan and its relationship to other strains (original) (raw)

This research investigates the genetic variability of the coat protein gene of Sugarcane Mosaic Virus (SCMV) in Pakistan and its relationship with other strains globally. Through molecular biology techniques, the study assesses the prevalence of various SCMV strains affecting sugarcane crops in Pakistan, providing insights into the virus's dissemination and impact on agriculture. Findings indicate the necessity for further understanding the genetic diversity of SCMV to develop effective management strategies against its spread.
