Niyongere, C.Losenge, T.Ateka, E.M.Ntukamazina, N.Ndayiragije, P.Simbare, A.Cimpaye, P.Nintije, P.Lepoint, P.Blomme, Guy[Understanding banana bunchy top disease epidemiology in Burundi for an enhanced and integrated management approach]Understanding banana bunchy top disease epidemiology in Burundi for an enhanced and integrated management approach

Studies on banana diversity and distribution have been carried out in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DR Congo) since the 1950s. However, there are still insufficient data on the distribution of diversity in large areas of the Congo basin. The present study was conducted in the surrounding regi...


Adheka, J.Komoy, J.Tamaru, C.Sivirahauma, C.Dhed’a, D.B.Karamura, D.Langhe, E. deSwennen, R.Blomme, Guy[Banana diversity in the Oriental provinces, northeastern Democratic Republic of Congo]Banana diversity in the Oriental provinces, northeastern Democratic Republic of Congo
Blomme, GuyOcimati, W.Groot, Jeroen C.J.Ntamwira, J.Bahati, L.Kantungeko, D.Remans, R.Tittonell, Pablo A.[Agroecological integration of shade-and drought-tolerant food/feed crops for year round productivity in banana-based systems under rain-fed conditions in Central Africa]Agroecological integration of shade-and drought-tolerant food/feed crops for year round productivity in banana-based systems under rain-fed conditions in Central Africa

Studies of Musa root systems have generally focused on the high value export dessert bananas. However, a much broader study is required to support the genetic improvement of plantains and cooking bananas. Detailed time course studies of root system development were carried out on 12 genotypes fro...


Blomme, GuyOrtiz, R.[Preliminary evaluation of variability in Musa root system development]Preliminary evaluation of variability in Musa root system development

This study assessed the effect of altitude on growth and yield of five commonly grown plantain (Musa, AAB) cultivars at four sites, Mavivi (1,066 m a.s.l.), Maboya (1,412 m a.s.l.), Butembo (1,815 m a.s.l.) and Ndihira (2,172 m a.s.l.) in North Kivu, Democratic Republic of Congo. The cultivars in...

This work focused on the morphological characterization of plantain cultivars collected in the period 2005–2014 in 280 villages across 9 provinces of the Democratic Republic of Congo. These cultivars were established in two field collections at the University of Kisangani.Existing descriptors wer...

Insect vectors of Xanthomonas campestris pv musacearum (Xcm) have played a major role in long distance and plant to plant transmission of Xanthomonas wilt of banana (XW). The prevalence of insects has been reported to vary in space and time. Some banana cultivars have also been reported to attrac...


Rutikanga, A.Night, G.Tusiime, GeoffreyOcimati, W.Blomme, Guy[Spatial and temporal distribution of insect vectors of Xanthomonas campestris pv. musacearum and their activity across banana cultivars grown in Rwanda.]Spatial and temporal distribution of insect vectors of Xanthomonas campestris pv. musacearum and their activity across banana cultivars grown in Rwanda.

Blomme, GuyOcimati, W.Sivirihauma, C.Vutseme, L.Mariamu, B.Kamira, M.Schagen, B. vanEkboir, Javier M.Ntamwira, J.[A control package revolving around the removal of single diseased banana stems is effective for the restoration of Xanthomonas wilt infected fields]A control package revolving around the removal of single diseased banana stems is effective for the restoration of Xanthomonas wilt infected fields

Xanthomonas wilt (XW) caused by Xanthomonas campestris pv. musacearum (Xcm) is an important constraint to banana production in East and Central Africa. The use of clean planting materials (CPM) for establishing new fields/ re-planting rouged fields/mats is recommended. However, banana is mainly p...


Sivirihauma, C.Ocimati, W.Vutseme, L.Ntamwira, J.Bahati, L.Blomme, Guy[Symptomless banana suckers sourced from Xanthomonas wilt infected fields are a viable alternative for seed within infected banana-based landscapes lacking access to clean planting materials]Symptomless banana suckers sourced from Xanthomonas wilt infected fields are a viable alternative for seed within infected banana-based landscapes lacking access to clean planting materials
