Soil properties vary according to the topography. They affect water uptake and root exploration in the soil. Consequently, they may also influence the spread of plant–parasitic nematodes. This study reports on the effect of toposequence-related variations in soil on banana yields, foliar nutrient...


Gaidashova, S.V.Asten, Piet J.A. vanDelvaux, B.Waele, D. de[The influence of the topographic position within highlands of Western Rwanda on the interactions between banana (Musa spp. AAAEA), parasitic nematodes and soil factors]The influence of the topographic position within highlands of Western Rwanda on the interactions between banana (Musa spp. AAAEA), parasitic nematodes and soil factors

In the East-African Great Lakes Region, low crop yields due to widespread soil infertility involve difficulties to cope with demographic pressure. Banana cropping systems are widespread and crucial for people livelihood. Improving their sustainability requires a better understanding of nutrient d...

A survey was carried out in 108 fields in Rwanda to identify constraints to banana productivity in three regions: Ruhengeri (young volcanic soils), Gitarama–Butare (soils derived from granitic rocks), and Kibungo (weathered soils from schistose materials). Data were recorded for the single cultiv...

Root colonization, soil population density and diversity of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi were assessed in 188 banana fields in contrasting soil types across five eco-regions in Rwanda (Butare–Gitarama, Gashonga, Bugarama, Kibungo, Ruhengeri). Root colonization was observed in all banana plan...

Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi are known to improve the growth of many crops of agricultural importance. The amplitude of this growth improvement may vary depending on soil type. Here, we report the effect of the application of indigenous AM fungi, isolated from a Nitisol from Kirehe (eastern ...
