Therefore, prevention and control methods are not well established for L. sacchari and are instead aimed at more influential diseases such as brown rust (Puccinia melanocephala), orange rust (Puccinia kuehnii), smut (Sporisorium scitamineum) and others. One control method includes examining genotypes of sugarcane in order to select for more resistant species to prevent ring spot in future generations of the crop.
Consequently, preventive and regulatory approaches are not well defined for L. sacchari and instead focus on more significant diseases such as brown rust (Puccinia melanocephala), orange rust (Puccinia kuehnii), smut (Sporisorium scitamineum), and others. One control strategy involves examining the genetic makeup of sugarcane to identify and select for more resistant varieties that can prevent ring spot in future generations of the crop.
