(MDMV) is a serious maize pathogen, epidemic worldwide, and one of the most common virus diseases for monocotyledonous plants, causing up to 70% loss in corn yield globally since 1960. MDMV belongs to the genus Potyvirus () and was first identified in 1964 in Illinois in corn and Johnsongrass. MDMV is a single stranded positive sense RNA virus and is transmitted in a non-persistent manner by several aphid species. MDMV is amongst the most important virus diseases in maize worldwide. This review will discuss its genome, transmission, symptomatology, diagnosis and management. Particular emphasis will be given to the current state of knowledge on the diagnosis and control of MDMV, due to its importance in reducing the impact of maize dwarf mosaic disease, to produce an enhanced quality and quantity of maize.
（MDMV）是一种严重的玉米病原体，在全球范围内流行，也是单子叶植物最常见的病毒病之一，自 1960 年以来，全球玉米产量损失高达 70%。MDMV 属于马铃薯 Y 病毒属（Potyvirus），于 1964 年首次在伊利诺伊州的玉米和约翰逊草中被发现。MDMV 是一种单链正链 RNA 病毒，通过几种蚜虫以非持久方式传播。MDMV 是世界范围内玉米最重要的病毒病之一。本文将讨论其基因组、传播、症状、诊断和管理。鉴于 MDMV 在减轻玉米矮花叶病的影响、提高玉米的质量和产量方面的重要性，将特别强调当前对 MDMV 的诊断和控制的研究现状。
