Hahn, S.K.Vuylsteke, D.R.Swennen, R.[First reactions to ABB cooking bananas distributed in southeastern Nigeria]First reactions to ABB cooking bananas distributed in southeastern Nigeria

We attempted to determine ploidy level in the gametophyte and the sporophyte of Musa using pollen and chloroplast characteristics, respectively. In the gametophyte, interploidy differences accounted for 63.8 % of the genetic variance for pollen diameter and 87.5% for pollen stainability, the rema...

Black sigatoka (Mycosphaerella fijiensis Morelet), an airborne fungal leaf-spot disease, is a major constraint to plantain and banana (Musa spp.) production world-wide. Gaining further knowledge of the genetics of host-plant resistance will enhance the development of resistant cultivars, which is...


Ortiz, R.Vuylsteke, D.R.[Inheritance of black sigatoka disease resistance in plantainbanana (Musa spp.) hybrids]Inheritance of black sigatoka disease resistance in plantainbanana (Musa spp.) hybrids

Few genetic markers are available in Musa spp. as a result of a lack of inheritance studies. Full-sib diploid (2n = 2x = 22) plantain-banana hybrids of the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture were selfed or outcrossed with other diploid bananas, one of which is an improved selection f...


Ortiz, R.Vuylsteke, D.R.[Inheritance of albinism in banana and plantain (Musa spp.)]Inheritance of albinism in banana and plantain (Musa spp.)

A strategy to control the black sigatoka disease of plantain (Musa spp, AAB group) in Africa, targeting the incorporation of durable host plant resistance, was initiated at the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA). The commonly accepted intractability of plantain to genetic impr...


Vuylsteke, D.R.Swennen, R.[Development and performance of tetraploid hybrids of plantain (Musa spp., AAB group) with black sigatoka resistance]Development and performance of tetraploid hybrids of plantain (Musa spp., AAB group) with black sigatoka resistance

Genetic enhancement of Musa spp. has aimed at producing hybrids with high yield, short stature, fast crop cycling, and disease resistance through interspecific and interploidy crosses. Progeny testing for parental selection has seldom been carried out in Musa and little is known on combining abil...

Dahal, G.Hughes, J.Gauhl, F.Pasberg-Gauhl, C.Thottappilly, G.Tenkouano, A.Vuylsteke, D.R.Lockhart, B.[Evaluation of micropropagated plantain and banana hybrids for banana streak badnavirus incidence in Nigeria]Evaluation of micropropagated plantain and banana hybrids for banana streak badnavirus incidence in Nigeria
