The objective of the symposium was to present the state of the art knowledge on the functioning of the Musa root system and its interrelationships with micro-organisms and pests, and to propose ways to improve root health. The papers present work done on cells as well as whole plants, and short-t...

This catalogue provides information on the morphological and yield characteristics of 19 introduced and 8 local banana cultivars grown at the IPB-UPLB demonstration plot. It is intended to serve as a guide to help in identifying and selecting cultivars for further evaluation by researchers and pl...

Caused by the bacterium Xanthomonas campestris pv. musacearum and previously known only in Ethiopia, where it affects bananas and its close relative Ensete, Banana Xanthomonas Wilt (BXW) is spreading through East Africa. Unlike most other diseases, which mainly reduce yield, it makes the fruit un...
Banana is an important food and cash crop in Uganda. The crop displays wide diversity but the genetic relationship between and withing cultivars is largely unknown. A study was conducted to assess genetic relationships among 'Sukali Ndizi' clones collected from 16 different localities in Uganda ...

Progress in breeding and delivering improved plantain and banana to African farmers
Low soil fertility and pest pressure are two causes of the decline in banana (Musa AAA) production in central Uganda. Foliar analysis by the Diagnosis and Recommendation Integrated System (DRIS) pinpoints K and Mg as the most limiting nutrients. This study tested the effects of K and Mg additions...
