Foxtail mosaic virus (FoMV)
Foxtail mosaic virus (FoMV) was first described from Setaria viridis (green foxtail) in a field in Kansas, U.S., where it caused mild chlorotic mosaic symptoms. It has a large experimental host range, infecting 56 monocot species and 35 dicot species, including numerous graminaceous species such as maize, Hordeum vulgare (barley), Sorghum bicolor (sorghum), Setaria spp. (millets), and Triticum aestivum (wheat). However, it has not yet been associated with major disease outbreaks or yield losses. It has further become a vector for gene function analysis in maize and other monocots (Beernink & Whitham, 2023).
