MCDV00
Maize chlorotic dwarf virus is transmitted by leafhoppers (predominantly Graminella nigrifrons). The virus overwinters in perennial hosts such as Johnsongrass, providing a reservoir for infection in subsequent growing seasons. Transmission occurs through leafhopper feeding. There is no evidence that seed is a pathway.
