Fusarium wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense (Foc), is one of the most devastating diseases in bananas resulting in significant loss of Cavendish bananas production worldwide. Here we show the agronomic traits and the resistance of 'Guijiao 9' in the field trials from 2012 to 2017. A...

Comparative transcriptome analysis reveals resistance-related genes and pathways in Musa acuminata banana 'Guijiao9' in response to Fusarium wilt
Fusarium oxysporum formae specialis cubense (Foc) is a soil-borne fungus that causes Fusarium wilt, which is considered to be the most destructive disease of bananas. The fungus is believed to have evolved with its host in the Indo-Malayan region, and from there it was spread to other banana-grow...

BACKGROUND:Striga hermonthica(Del.) Benth. (witchweed) poses the greatest biological constraint to food production insub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Control options forStrigaare currently largely ineffective or unavailable to farmers, and othermanagement possibilities are urgently needed. Biological c...

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...

Fusarium wilt, caused by Fusarium oxysporum F. sp. phaseoli caused growers to abandon the most popular climbing bean cultivar, Umubano (G2333) in Rwanda. The present objective was to determine the nature of inheritance of fusarium wilt resistance and recommend a breeding strategy to introduce res...

Fusarium oxysporumf.sp.strigaewas reported to be effective in the control ofStrig-a hermonthica(Del.). The most effective (pathogenic toStriga) isolates werePSM197 and FOXY2 obtained from Nigeria and Ghana, respectively. To make appli-cation easier, the organisms were encapsulated in a pesta as c...

Banana is the most popular and most exported fruit and also a major food crop for millions of people around the world. Despite its importance, research into this crop is limited and hence, it suffers from major disease threats. One of those is Panama disease or Fusarium wilt. In the previous cent...
