This level of productivity (6.3 t ha-1 yr-1) is extremely low when compared to the yields obtained on station and well-manag...
Surveys were undertaken at 24 diagnostic sites in Uganda to determine the distribution and incidence of Fusarium wilt on exotic banana cultivars caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense. Symptoms normally associated with the disease were found to be widespread throughout the major banana growi...
