1957年,广东省水稻发生了一种稻叶发黄的病害,其症状与生理早衰的稻叶发黄相似。经过试验,证实该病为叶蝉传播的病毒病,称为水稻黄矮病Rice Yellow Stunt Virus,RYSV。后来华南、华东、华中等许多省份也发生此病。1960年台湾水稻上暴发的一种病害,由于当时对病原不了解,误以为是土壤通透性不良引起的“窒息病”,后来证实是由黑尾叶蝉(Nephotettix cincticeps)传播的病毒病,1965年邱人璋将其定名为水稻黄叶 In 1957, a disease of yellow rice leaves occurred in rice in Guangdong Province. The symptoms were similar to yellow leaves of rice in physiological premature aging. After testing, the disease was confirmed to be a leafhopper-transmitted virus disease called Rice Yellow Stunt Virus, RYSV. Later in southern China, east China, central China and other provinces also occur in this disease. A disease caused by the outbreak of rice in Taiwan in 1960 was a “suffocation disease” mistakenly thought to be caused by poor soil permeability because it did not know the pathogen and later proved to be a viral disease transmitted by Nephotettix cincticeps. In 1965 Qiu Renzhang named it yellow rice leaves
