Two major biotic constraints to highland cooking banana (Musa spp., genome group AAA-EA) production in Uganda are the banana weevil Cosmopolites sordidus and the burrowing nematode Radopholus similis. Endophytic Fusarium oxysporum strains inoculated into tissue culture banana plantlets have shown...

Yams (Dioscorea spp.) are food crops of growing significance in sub Saharan Africa. Unfortunately, nematodes are major pests to their production. A study was undertaken in major yam growing areas of Uganda to investigate the association of plant parasitic nematodes with damage symptoms. Nemato...

Les ignames (Dioscorea spp.) sont une culture alimentaire d’importance croissante en Afrique sub–saharienne.Malheureusement, les nématodes sont des parasites majeurs qui gênent sa production. Une étude était menéedans les principales régions productrices de l’igname en Ouganda en vue de pouvoir ...

The type and level of disease reaction of Ugandan maize genotypes to Peronosclerospora sorghi was characterized using several variables during the second season of 1994 at two locations, Nazaretti in Mpigi district and Ikulwe in Iganga district. Maize genotypes differed significantly (p 0.05) in ...

The use of mutualistic fungal endophytes to control the banana weevil (Cosmopolites sordidus) and banana parasitic nematodes (Radopholus similis, Pratylenchus goodeyi and Helicotylenchus multicinctus) is currently being investigated at the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture. Fungal e...

Among the major constriats to highland cooking banana (Musa spp. AAA-EA) production in Uganda is the high pests infestation levels. Most important are the banana weevil cosmopolites sordidus and a complex of plant parasitic root nematodes of which Radopholus similis is the most important. Clean p...

Development of sorghum downy mildew, incited by Peronoscleospora sorghi (Weston and Uppal) C.G. Shaw, on maize, sorghum and Johnson grass was investigated at two locations in Uganda during three seasons (1994 and 1995). More sorghum downy mildew developed on the Johnson grass and sorghum than on ...

Non-pathogenic endophytic Fusarium oxysporum inoculated into banana (Musa spp.) tissue culture plants can provide protection against banana weevils (Cosmopolites sordidus) and nematodes (Radopholus similis). The degree of control probably depends, in part, upon the level of endophyte establishmen...

Banana (Musaspp.) in East Africa is threatened by pests and diseases, of which the burrowingnematode, Radopholus similis, is among the most serious and difficult to control. Fungal antagonists, such as Paecilomyces spp., can aid in controlling R. similis. In this study, Paecilomyces spp. was isol...

El cultivo de banano (Musaspp.) en Africa Oriental se ve afectado por plagas y enfermedades, en-tre las cuales el nematodo barrenador, Radopholus similis,es uno de los más serios y difíciles de con-trolar. Los hongos antagonistas, como Paecilomycesspp., pueden ayudar a controlar R. similis. En es...

In 1996, Cassava Mosaic Disease in Western Kenya depressed productivity and de-stabilized markets. The study assesses the effectiveness of breeding and disseminating CMD-resistant varieties in western Kenya by determining the extent of adoption and impact on farmers' income of the new varieties v...
