Radopholus similisis a major pest of East African highland cooking bananas (Musaspp.) in Uganda. Non-pathogenic Fusariumoxysporumendophytes, isolated from bananas in farmers’ fields, have shown potential to reduceR. Similis numbers in tissue culture banana. The mechanism through which endophyte...

Beauveria bassiana is considered a virulent pathogen against the banana weevil Cosmopolites sordidus. However, current field application techniques for effective control against this pest remain a limitation and an alternative method for effective field application needs to be investigated. Three...

The use of mutualistic fungal endophytes to control the banana weevil (Cosmopolites sordidus) and banana parasitic nematodes (Radopholus similis, Pratylenchus goodeyi and Helicotylenchus multicinctus) is currently being investigated at the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture. Fungal e...

Among the major constriats to highland cooking banana (Musa spp. AAA-EA) production in Uganda is the high pests infestation levels. Most important are the banana weevil cosmopolites sordidus and a complex of plant parasitic root nematodes of which Radopholus similis is the most important. Clean p...

Non-pathogenic endophytic Fusarium oxysporum inoculated into banana (Musa spp.) tissue culture plants can provide protection against banana weevils (Cosmopolites sordidus) and nematodes (Radopholus similis). The degree of control probably depends, in part, upon the level of endophyte establishmen...

The burrowing nematode (Radopholus similis (Cobb) Thorne) and the banana weevil (Cosmopolites sordidus Germar, Coleoptera: Curculionidae) are major pests of banana (Musa spp.) in the Lake Victoria basin region of Uganda. Among biological options to control the two pests is the use of non-pathogen...

In studying plant colonization by inoculated Fusarium oxysporum endophytes, it is important to be able to distinguish inoculated isolates from saprophytic strains. In the current study, F. oxysporum isolates were transformed with the green (GFP) and red fluorescent protein (DsRed) genes, and beno...

Under laboratory conditions, nonpathogenic, endophytic Fusarium oxysporum inflicts high mortality among banana weevils and nematodes. Following inoculation into banana (Musa spp.) tissue cultured plants, successful colonisation is necessary for efficient biological control of these pests. The pat...
