Talk:Panicum mosaic virus

Merge[edit]

I'm BOLDly merging St. Augustine Decline into this article, since the literature seems to indicate it's the only major disease caused by PMV, and that it's the only major viral disease affecting turf. Furthermore, SAD is frequently used to refer to PMV (see for instance the Duble reference). It's not perfect as of now and still needs work- especially a review of more recent scientific literature. But it's a start. Please don't revert me! :-) —/Mendaliv/^2¢/_Δ's/ 20:52, 8 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Looks fine to me. There is ongoing debate about whether to have separate articles for a disease and the pathogen that causes it, but in this case it seems like a pretty easy call, given how short the St. Augustine Decline article was, and the terminology issues which you mention.
