摘要：

Maize streak mastrevirus is widespread in tropical and sub-tropical Africa. It is transmitted persistently by several species of leafhoppers, Cicadulina spp. (Homoptera: Cicadelbdae). Yield loss caused by the virus ranges from 30 to 100%. Integrated pest management is the best approach to combating this disease of maize. This paper reviews the distribution, transmission, epidemiology economic significance, management strategies and future research needs of the virus. (C) 2002 by The Haworth Press, Inc.
