Despite massive efforts by regional governments and partners in the East and Central African region towards fighting Xanthomonas Wilt of banana, the disease is reported to continue to spread to new areas and resurge in others it had been contained. The use of asymptomatic but infectious plants is...

Management of harvested (senescent) banana pseudostems has implications for efficiency of nutrient use for sole cropped as well as intercropped bananas. Two studies were conducted on aspects of nutrient flows from senescent pseudostems. Sixty one and 55% of the initial N and P, respectively, in s...

The banana weevil Cosmopolites sordidus (Germar) is the most important insect pest of bananas and plantains (Musa spp.). The larvae bore in the corm, reducing nutrient uptake and weakening the stability of the plant. Attack in newly planted banana stands can lead to crop failure. In established f...

Xanthomonas wilt, caused by Xanthomonascampestris pv. musacearum has, since 2001, becomethe most important and widespread disease of Musa inEast and Central Africa. Over the past decade, newresearch findings and especially feedback from smallscalefarmers have helped in fine-tuning Xanthomonaswilt...

The effects of a leaf spot complex (including Mycosphaerella musicola, M. fijiensis and Cladosporium musae) and leaf pruning on plant growth and yield in highland bananas were investigated in a field trial at Kawanda Agricultural Research Institute. Results from the first ratoon crop revealed tha...

The banana weevil Cosmopolites sordidus Germar, has evaded all efforts to manage it in all banana-based cropping systems except the commercial plantation banana system, where the 2 to 3 year crop cycle and the intensity of management limit the pest survival in that system. Conversely, in backyard...
