In this study, the authors assessed the methylation patterns stressed by SCMV （sugarcane mosaic virus） in maize by methylation-sensitive amplified polymorphism （MSAP）, and identified important candidate genes related to SCMV resistance through combining microarray analysis with CpG islands prediction. The results of MSAP indicated DNA methylation levels appeared dynamic changes inoculated for 0 d, 1 d, 4 d, 5 d and 10 d. 118 candidate genes were identified infected by SCMV, which may participate in DNA methylation modification. Among them, eight candidate genes were mapped on Scmvl and Scmv2 QTL regions, which are crucial for SCMV resistance. In conclusion, DNA methylation is closely related with maize resistance to SCMV and plays an important role in regulating gene expression responded to maize resistance.展开更多

In the study, four primer pairs specific to SCMV, SrMV, MDMV and JGMV, respectively, were designed and used to detect 29 sugarcane leaf mosaic samples collected from 9 locations in Jiangxi province. The representative RT-PCR products were sequenced. The results showed that 22 samples were infected by SCMV, three by SrMV, and four were mix-infected by SCMV and SrMV. MDMV or JGMV were not identified in all samples. The result indicates that SCMV is the major pathogen of sugarcane mosaic disease in Jiangxi province, and SrMV is also a pathogen for the disease.展开更多
