Abstract

Plant viruses pose significant threats to agricultural productivity and food security worldwide. This article explores various management strategies employed to overcome the impact of plant viruses on crops, with a focus on enhancing crop health and productivity. It underscores the need for proactive management strategies to minimize yield losses, reduce disease spread, and maintain sustainable crop production through preventive measures such as Conventional and Non- conventional approaches by highlighting the key methods such as the use of resistant cultivars, cultural practices, vector control, thermos, electro, and chemotherapy, along with CRISPR, RNAi, and nanotechnology. This review article provides an overview of the current management approaches employed for controlling plant viruses.
