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...

Detailed time studies on the distribution of dry matter within a Musa spp. plants ' root and shoot system have not been done. Hence, the influence of genotype and developmental stage on the root system development, plant dry matter distribution and the shoot-root ratio of field grown Musa spp. pl...

This paper evaluates the determinants of decision-making in relation to the production of four crops (banana, cassava, potato, and sweet potato). Understanding the division of labor and decision-making in crop management may lead to designing better interventions targeted at improving efficiency ...

Insects are a major mode of banana Xanthomonas wilt (XW) spread. High insect activity has been blamed for the high XW incidence in ‘Kayinja’ (ABB-genome) dominated banana landscapes across east and central Africa. ‘Kayinja’ male bud nectar composition reportedly contributes to high insect activit...

The root system development of 11 genotypes from six diverse Musa groups was studied in detail at IITA High Rainfall Station (Onne, southeastern Nigeria). Plantain hybrids (TMPx 548-9, TMPx 1658-4) were compared with their maternal French plantain landrace (Obino l' Ewai) and their paternal diplo...

Diverse cultural practices have been communicated to and/or applied by resource-poor households over the past two decades to improve the overall farm health and crop tolerance to biotic/abiotic factors. This study assessed the current diversity and use of cultural practices on banana fields in It...
