Detection, identification and characterization of SCMV and MCMV causing MLND has been achieved from 174 symptomatic maize leaf samples. DAS-ELISA result showed, 43 samples having strong reaction for MCMV antibody and only 14 samples were clearly positive for SCMV. RT-PCR using specific viral primers revealed the presence of MCMC and SCMV in most samples. Further confirmation of serological and RT-PCR based identification and analysis of the genetic diversity of representative viral strains was done by direct sequencing of the RT-PCR products. The phylogenetic tree indicated that the virus isol...
