Musalogue: Diversity in the genus Musa
East African highland bananas (AAA, EAHB) form over 80% of the banana cultivars in the Great Lakes region and are a source of food and income for over 40 million in the region. The production of these bananas has been constrained by pests, diseases, soil fertility decline and most recently climat...

The performance of East African highland bananas released in farmers' fields and the need for their further improvement
Bananas (Musa spp.) constitute one of the most important staple food crops in Africa. Two major groups of bananas exist in Africa: the East African highland banana (EAHB, AAA) in East and Central Africa, and the plantains (AAB) in West Africa. Neither of these groups has been affected by Fusarium...

Resistance to Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense tropical race 4 in African bananas
It is imperative to systematically evaluate new banana genotypes in different locations before national release. This enables selection and recommendation of superior genotypes as new varieties for a wider range of environments. The objective of the present study was to select banana genotypes wi...
