Field studies were conducted to determine banana weevil attraction to processed banana tissues that could then be used at delivery sites for the entomopathogen Beauveria bassiana . Tested materials included pounded corm or pseudostem and chopped corm or pseudostem of (cv Mpologoma, AAA-EA and Kay...

Beauveria bassiana (Balsamo) Vuillemin, an entomopathogenic fungus, can exist asymptomatically as an endophyte in banana (Musa spp.) and potentially provide management against the banana weevil Cosmopolites sordidus (Germar). However, in order to optimize its biological control potential when dep...

Timing and distribution of attack on East African highland banana (Musa AAA- EA) by the banana weevil, Cosmopolites sordidus (Germar), (Coleoptera: Curculion- idae) was studied in a field trial at a farm 25 km NE of Kampala, Uganda. Weevils were released at three densities (5, 20 and 40 females p...

Beans and bananas were grown in sole crop and intercrop systems for three seasons in 1989 and 1990 to determine the effects of cropping system on diseases, insects and land-use efficiency and the roles of certain bean plant physiological traits on bean yield in the two systems.
Bean yield in the ...
