Yellow leaf disease (YLD) of sugarcane was first reported in Hamakua (Hawaii) on variety H650782 in 1989 as yellow leaf syndrome1 and subsequently from the United States mainland2 and many other sugarcane growing countries. The disease is reported worldwide in more than 30 countries.3,4 In India, the disease is prevalent in major sugarcane growing states like Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Tamilnadu and Madhya Pradesh.5 Currently severe disease incidence is observed in all the sugarcane growing states in the country. The incidence of SCYLV in commercial fields can reach 100% in susceptible cultivars, and the disease can cause significant yield losses in susceptible cultivars even if infected plants do not exhibit the disease symptoms. Detection of the disease is very important as this viral disease is majorly sett borne and planting of infected sets results in severe reduction in yield as well as quality.6 Hence the present study was directed towards the detection of ScYLV using both serological and molecular tools from leaf tissue, seedlings as well as from stem sap.","PeriodicalId":92215,"journal":{"name":"International clinical pathology journal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-03-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45365512","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The tissue is directed for histopathological corroboration to assign a histological classification of CIN 2, CIN2/3 or CIN 3.

The causes of SCAD are classified into 3 main subgroups: atherosclerotic disease, peripartum period, and idiopathic.

Patients with SCAD can present with heart attacks, cardiac arrest, or sudden cardiac death. Symptoms of heart attacks in these cases can include chest, shoulder, arm, or epigastric pain, with or without shortness of breath and nausea/ vomiting. The heart attack severity can range from mild to severe, which may compromise heart function, causing heart failure, low blood pressure, and other organ dysfunction. During hospitalization, heart enzymes and electrocardiograms often show changes consistent with heart attacks. Some may even have abnormal heart rhythms, causing cardiac arrest that can be lethal.
