Banana Xanthomonas wilt, caused by Xanthomonas campestris pv. musacearum, is a new threat to banana cultivation in eastern Africa. The causal bacterium grows slowly in culture and is easily overgrown by contaminants. A selective culture medium for isolation of X. c. pv. musacearum will facilitate...

An efficient, simple, and rapid regeneration system was established for bananas (Musa sp.) using sections of corm containing intercalary meristematic tissues as explants. Six different cultivars of banana (‘Mpologoma’, ‘Nakitembe’, ‘Mbwazirume’, ‘Pisang awak’, ‘Sukali ndiizi’, and ‘FHIA-17’) with...
