Strains naturally infecting certain other hosts are also known as abaca mosaic potyvirus (Eloja and Tinsley, 1963) and as maize dwarf mosaic potyvirus strain B (Mackenzie et al., 1966; Louie and Knoke, 1975). Until recently, most aphid-borne potyviruses infecting sugarcane and other members of the Poaceae were assumed to be either sugarcane mosaic virus or maize dwarf mosaic virus. However, new criteria for speciation of these members of the Potyviridae have been proposed (Shukla et al., 1989; Shukla et al., 1992; Shukla and Ward, 1994): the amino-acid sequence homology of their coat proteins, and serological relationships with antisera derived from epitopes in the amino terminus rather than the core region of the coat protein. Using these criteria, virus isolates previously included as strains of sugarcane mosaic virus or maize dwarf mosaic virus have been placed in four distinct viruses: sugarcane mosaic virus itself (USA strains A, B, D and E, Australian strains SC, BC and Sabi, and USA maize dwarf mosaic strain B); Johnsongrass mosaic virus (Australian sugarcane mosaic virus strain JG, USA maize dwarf mosaic strains O and Kansas 1; Shukla and Teakle, 1989; McKern et al., 1990; note that Johnsongrass is Sorghum halepense); maize dwarf mosaic virus (USA strains A, D, E and F; Ford et al., 1989); and sorghum mosaic virus (USA sugarcane mosaic virus strains H, I and M; Shukla et al., 1989). For further information, see Taxonomy section of data sheet on maize dwarf mosaic potyvirus. Description Particles are flexuous filaments of about 750 x 13 nm (Teakle et al., 1989). The coat protein comprises a single polypeptide species of Mr 35,000 and 328 amino-acid residues (Frenkel et al., 1991). Partial amino-acid sequences for coat protein of the sugarcane, Queensland blue couch grass and Sabi grass strains are given by Shukla et al. (1987). The nucleic acid is a single ssRNA species of ca Mr 3,400,000, which comprises ca 5% of the weight of the particle (Berger et al., 1988; Frenkel et al., 1991). Distribution SCMV is present in most of the major sugarcane-producing countries of the world. Exceptions are Mozambique and Guyana (Koike and Gillaspie, 1989), Mauritius (Ricaud, 1980) and possibly Madeira (ISSCT, 1989). http://www.cabi.org/cpc/datasheetreport?dsid=49801 2/19 24/7/2017 Datasheet report for Sugarcane mosaic virus (mosaic of abaca) Since the recent realization that sorghum mosaic virus (previously called sugarcane mosaic virus strains H, I and M) as well as SCMV can cause mosaic of sugarcane, the identity of potyviruses in sugarcane has been in doubt in some countries. On the basis of the current taxonomic criteria, all isolates of potyviruses infecting sugarcane in Australia have been found to be sugarcane mosaic virus. However, in Louisiana, USA, most recent isolates are sorghum mosaic virus (previously sugarcane mosaic virus strains H, I and M; Grisham, 1994). Sorghum mosaic virus (SCMV-H) is also known to occur in Japan (Gillaspie and Mock, 1979) and India (Kondaiah and Nayudu, 1984). The viruses infecting sugarcane in many other countries is unclear. In some countries, some potyviruses that were previously called SCMV and that infect grasses are now classed as sorghum mosaic, Johnsongrass mosaic or maize dwarf mosaic viruses. For example, SCMV-johnsongrass strain in Australia is now called Johnsongrass mosaic virus (Shukla and Teakle, 1989). In Japan, a SCMV resembling the A strain occurs in Paspalum conjugatum and can infect some sugarcane varieties on inoculation (Ohtsu and Gomi, 1985). In Australia, SCMV is localized in Queensland and unrecorded in other states; it has not been seen for several years in New South Wales, but could still be present there (DS Teakle, University of Queensland, Australia, personal communication, 1996).
