Dheda Djailo, B.Nzawele, B.D.Roux, N.Ngezahayo, F.Vigheri, N.DeLanghe, E.Karamura, D.Picq, C.Blomme, Guy[Musa collection and characterization work in central and eastern DR-Congo: a chronological overview]Musa collection and characterization work in central and eastern DR-Congo: a chronological overview

Thirty-seven pairs of accessions of East African highland bananas, listed under the same name in the Ugandan germplasm collections at Kawanda and Kabanyolo, were surveyed for 50 morphological characters. The data were subjected to cluster analysis and principal components analysis. Duplicates kno...


Pickersgrill, B.Vuylsteke, D.R.Gold, C.Karamura, E.B.Kiggundu, A.Karamura, D.[Multivariate analyses of supposedly duplicate accessions of east African highland bananas in germplasm colections in Uganda]Multivariate analyses of supposedly duplicate accessions of east African highland bananas in germplasm colections in Uganda

Between 1970 and 1990, highland green cooking banana production rapidly declined in the traditional growing areas in the central region, while during the same period banana production expanded in the country's southwest. Thus, Kampala's growing urban market for banana became dependent upon new gr...

This study assessed the on-farm Musa germplasm diversity across different agro-ecologies of Rwanda and the socio-economic utilization options and selection practices that create/maintain this diversity on-farm. Methodology and results: A Musa germplasm diagnostic survey was carried out in 2007 in...


Ocimati, W.Blomme, GuyKaramura, D.Rutikanga, A.Ragama, P.E.Gaidashova, S.V.Nsabimana, A.Murekezi, C.[Musa germplasm diversity status across a wide range of agro-ecological zones in Rwanda]Musa germplasm diversity status across a wide range of agro-ecological zones in Rwanda

Banana germplasm collections serves as a source of useful genes for banana breeding. However, insufficient and/or inaccurate information on the ploidy level of the germplasm renders its utilization in breeding difficult. The objective of this study was to determine and validate the ploidy level o...


Karamura, D.Tumuhimbise, R.Muhangi, S.Nyine, M.Pillay, M.Tendo, R.S.Talengera, D.Namanya, P.Kubiriba, J.Karamura, E.B.[Ploidy level of the banana (Musa spp.) accessions at the germplasm collection centre for the East and Central Africa]Ploidy level of the banana (Musa spp.) accessions at the germplasm collection centre for the East and Central Africa

Fusarium wilt of bananas (Musa species) is caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense (Foc). Foc race 1 in particular affects dessert bananas in Uganda, causing >60% yield loss. This study was conducted to assess the performance of two new apple banana genotypes for bunch yield, resistance to Fo...

It is imperative to systematically evaluate new banana genotypes in different locations before national release. This enables selection and recommendation of superior genotypes as new varieties for a wider range of environments. The objective of the present study was to select banana genotypes wi...

The history of wild and cultivated plant diversity in Uganda is reviewed, taking forest species and bananas as examples. Palynological research into past human influences on forests is reassessed. The evidence suggests that crops were first introduced into the country at about 1000 BCE, farming c...
