Pathogenic mechanisms of maize sheath blight: Integrative advances and perspectives
This review synthesizes current knowledge regarding the biological complexity and genetic differentiation of the pathogen, the spatiotemporal dynamics of host infection and histopathology, and the mechanistic contributions of core virulence arsenals to provide an in-depth analysis of how mechanistic insights can be translated into actionable strategies for improving maize resistance and developing sustainable green management technologies.
