Sugarcane, a key cash crop in tropical and subtropical regions, is primarily cultivated for sucrose and bioethanol. However, Sugarcane Leaf Scald Disease, caused by the Gram-negative bacterium , significantly threatens global sugarcane production. This review examines the disease cycle, epidemics, host-pathogen interactions, integrated management strategies, and future prospects for combating leaf scald.

Improvement of sugarcane is hampered due to its narrow genetic base, and the difficulty in synchronizing flowering further hinders the exploitation of the genetic potential of available germplasm resources. Therefore, the continuous evaluation and optimization of flowering control and induction techniques are vital for sugarcane improvement. In view of this, the review was conducted to investigate the current understanding of photoperiodic and lighting treatment effects on sugarcane flowering and its genetic regulation.
