Tuber yields of yam (Dioscorea spp.), a main staple food in West Africa, are steadily declining per unit area, an incidence for which decreasing soil fertility due to increasing land pressure is largely blamed. Recent studies demonstrated the association of a plethora of arbuscular mycorrhizal fu...

In Uganda, nematodes have the potential to cause substantial yield losses, yet it is not known whether farmers have knowledge of the damage these pests cause. A participatory rural appraisal was therefore conducted to assess farmers' awareness of nematodes, and to determine the preferred traits i...

Beauveria bassiana is considered a virulent pathogen against the banana weevil Cosmopolites sordidus. However, current field application techniques for effective control against this pest remain a limitation and an alternative method for effective field application needs to be investigated. Three...

Crop growth and damage parameters (plant growth and yield, root damage and nematode population densities), believed to be associated with resistance of Musa genotypes to nematodes under field conditions, were evaluated in a field trial of 24 Musa genotypes inoculated at planting with a combinatio...

The damage potential of the plant-parasitic nematodes Pratylenchus coffeae, Helicotylenchus multicinctus and Meloidogyne javanica, was assessed on plantain (Musa spp., AAB-group) cv. Apantu-pa in microplots in Ghana. Hot water treated suckers, planted in 3 l plastic bags containing sterilised soi...
