Viruses, which rely on their host to cause infection, pose a significant threat to global vegetable production, resulting in substantial yield losses, deteriorated vegetable quality, and economic losses for farmers. Managing viral diseases is a complex process due to the intricate biological mechanisms of the virus and its ability to cause latent infections, making early detection challenging. Virus spread is exacerbated by unrestricted global trade and global warming, which favors virus-vector interactions and the possible emergence of new virus strains. Several disease management options are already in place. This includes using clean and virus-free planting materials, as well as the application of disease detection technologies. These strategies, however, must be supported by robust legislative policies covering seed production and distribution, quarantine and certification, and stricter trade policies.
