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...

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...

Under laboratory conditions, nonpathogenic, endophytic Fusarium oxysporum inflicts high mortality among banana weevils and nematodes. Following inoculation into banana (Musa spp.) tissue cultured plants, successful colonisation is necessary for efficient biological control of these pests. The pat...
