Sugarcane mosaic virus (SCMV) is the most prevalent virus causing sugarcane mosaic and maize dwarf mosaic diseases. Here, we presented the first two complete genomic sequences of Iranian SCMV isolates, NRA and ZRA from sugarcane and maize. The complete genome sequences of NRA and ZRA were, respectively, 9571 and 9572 nucleotides (nt) in length, excluding the 3'-terminal poly(A) tail. Both isolates contained a 5'-untranslated region (UTR) of 149 nt, an open reading frame of 9192 nt encoding a polyprotein of 3063 amino acids (aa), and 3'-UTR of 230 nt for NRA and 231 nt for ZRA. SCMV-NRA and -ZRA genome nucleotide sequences were 97.3 % identical and shared nt identities of 79.1-92 % with those of other 21 SCMV isolates available in the GenBank, highest with the isolate Bris-A (AJ278405) (92 and 91.7 %) from Australia. When compared for separate genes, most of their genes shared the highest identities with Australian and Argentinean isolates. Phylogenetic analysis of the complete genomic sequences reveals that SCMV can be clustered to three groups. Both NRA and ZRA were clustered with sugarcane isolates from Australia and Argentina in group III but formed a separate sublineage. Recombination analysis showed that both isolates were intraspecific recombinants, and represented two novel recombination patterns of SCMV (in the P1 coding region). NRA had six recombination sites within the P1, HC-Pro, CI, NIa-Vpg, and NIa-pro coding regions, while ZRA had four within the P1, HC-Pro, NIa-Pro, and NIb coding regions.

Background/aim: (SCMV; genus and family ), poses a significant threat to global sugarcane cultivars, including those in Pakistan. The aim of this study was to develop a rapid and effective diagnostic tool for detection of SCMV, enabling timely implementation of control measures to mitigate potential yield losses.
Materials And Methods: The study focused on the in silico analysis, physicochemical properties, immunogenicity, and subcellular localization of the SCMV coat protein (CP).

Background: Sugarcane is host of many viral pathogens that affects its growth and productivity. High-throughput sequencing (HTS) is comprehensive diagnostic platform that permit the precise detection of viral pathogens to resolve the disease epidemiology of the crop, thus providing the phytosanitary status of plants. The current work was designed to comprehend the virome profiling of sugarcane belonging to five varieties collected from the major crop producing states in India.

Article Synopsis
- Tomato is the second most important vegetable crop worldwide and is being threatened by a new viral disease causing notable shoestring symptoms on leaves and poor fruit quality.
- A study confirmed that the tomato mottle mosaic virus (ToMMV) is responsible for this disease, as it produced the same symptoms when tested on tomato plants.
- The virus can infect various related plants but does not affect cucurbits, and it can be transmitted through seeds, highlighting the need for better diagnostic tools and management strategies to protect tomato cultivation in India.

Article Synopsis
- * The splicing factor U2AF65B influences the splicing of mRNA surveillance complexes, crucial for maintaining transcript stability in maize.
- * The sugarcane mosaic virus's protease (NIa-Pro) inhibits U2AF65B's splicing function and its binding to pre-mRNA, disrupting the mRNA surveillance pathway and promoting viral infection.

Promoters are one of the most important components for many gene-based research as they can fine-tune precise gene expression. Many unique plant promoters have been characterized, but strong promoters with dual expression in both monocot and dicot systems are still lacking. In this study, we attempted to make such a promoter by combining specific domains from monocot-infecting pararetroviral-based promoters sugarcane bacilliform virus (SCBV) and banana streak virus (BSV) to a strong dicot-infecting pararetroviral-based promoter mirabilis mosaic virus (MMV).
