Taswar Ahsan* and Hina Ishaq

Plant virus diseases cause considerable harm to agricultural production. Due to its unique biological character, it is a top priority for agriculture to effectively control plant virus diseases and reduce economic losses. In order to control, reduce or eliminate plant virus diseases, many control methods have been studied, such as the use of disease-resistant varieties and seed detoxification measures to prevent the occurrence of diseases; the use of biological control agents such as virus attenuated strains to interfere with virus infection and proliferation. Insecticides are used to control viral vectors in order to achieve the purpose of disease control. However, it is not yet possible to prevent the harm of the virus to the crops, and it is necessary to perfect the comprehensive control of the disease with the help of effective pesticides.
