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...

Banana bunchy top disease (BBTD) is caused by Banana bunchy top virus (BBTV), which is transmitted by the aphid vector Pentalonia nigronervosa Coquerel and through infected planting materials. It is one of the most economically important diseases in many banana-producing areas of Africa, Asia and...

Banana is an important crop for food and income in Burundi. However, average annual yields are low (5 t/ha) because of low and declining soil fertility, and pest and disease pressure. To help overcome the challenges to banana production in the Great Lakes region of Central Africa, the Consortium ...
