The influence of some edaphic factors (soil moisture and organic matter) on plantain susceptibility to Radopholus similis was studied on cultivar Agbagba in a shade house. Densities of R. similis increased with increasing soil moisture level and were highest at field capacity revealing that at th...

Radopholus similis is responsible for huge production losses of banana in Uganda, where a large proportion of the population are reliant on cooking banana as their main staple crop. Assessment of the pathogenic and genetic variability of seven populations of R. similis originating from banana pla...

The spatial distribution of nematode populations and damage in roots of Nabusa (Musa AAA-group ‘Matooke’), Pisang Awak (Musa ABB) and Sukali Ndizi (Musa AB) three banana cultivars widely grown in Uganda, was investigated at three locations, each with a distinctive nematode population and composit...

Highland cooking bananas (Musa spp. AAA) are a major staple in Eastern Africa. However, plant parasitic nematodes comprise a primary production constraint. Planting of infested material is the principle means of dispersal for these nematodes, as well as banana weevil and fusarium wilt. Nematode i...

Host plant response to root nematodes of 'Matoke' (Musa AAA-group), 'Sukali Ndizi' (Musa AB-group) and 'Kayinja'banana (Musa ABB-group) was evaluated at lkulwe and Ryeru in Uganda. Radopholus similis and Helicotylenchusmulticinctus were the most abundant nematode species at Ikulwe. The population...

A survey was conducted at 17 sites in Central Uganda. Suckers were detached from East African Highland cooking bananas (Musa spp., AAA-group) and the cultivar Pisang Awak (Musa spp., ABB-group), and assessed for nematode population densities and root damage. The frequency of occurrence on both Mu...

Production loss caused by nematodes in East African highland banana was evaluated at Sendusu, near Kampala in Uganda, 1120 m above sea level. The commonly grown cultivar, Mbwazirume, was grown in nematode-infested and non-infested plots under heavily mulched, clean-weeded and millet-intercropped ...

Studies were undertaken to determine disease interactions involving P. goodeyi and a non-pathogenic strain of F. oxysporum, both responsible for root-rotting and subsequent toppling of 2 banana cultivars in Kenya. Thirty days after inoculation of young banana plants with P. goodeyi alone or in co...

Mulch supported more vigorous plants and repressed nematode activity. Plant parasitic nematodes were responsible for damage to the roots of plantain cv. Agbagba, resulting in reduction in the number of functional leaves on the plants. Inoculated plants had better suckering than the uninnoculated ...
