The BAHD Acyltransferase Gene Family: Evolutionary Dynamics, Biochemical Mechanisms, and Roles in Plant Stress Adaptation

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 4139-4158, June 2026.
BAHD acyltransferases drive metabolic diversification in plants by coupling conserved catalytic scaffolds with regulatory flexibility, enabling stress adaptation and ecological specialisation. ABSTRACT BAHD acyltransferases constitute one of the most versatile enzyme superfamilies in plants, catalysing the acylation of alcohols, amines, polyamines, and

Eucalyptus cloeziana mulch suppresses Fusarium wilt of banana

, 2021
Fusarium wilt of banana, caused by Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. cubense, is a serious threat to banana production, with no effective treatment. Mulches and oils from Eucalyptus have been shown to inhibit the growth of F. oxysporum, and reduce the severity of

Genetic diversity of Fusarium oxysporum associated to the banana Fusarium wilt

Revista Mexicana de Fitopatología, Mexican Journal of Phytopathology
Background/Objective. The research objective was to analyze Fusarium oxysporum (Fo) isolates from different banana regions from México using SSR markers. Materials and Methods. Pseudostems of Musa plants exhibiting wilt-disease were sampled from ‘Pisang Awak’ (ABB), ‘Silk’ (AAB), and ‘Bluggoe’ (ABB) varieties collected on commercial orchards of five ...

Integrated Diagnostics for Banana Bunchy Top Disease: Combining LAMP Molecular Detection With a Multi‐Disease Computer Vision System for Field‐Level Surveillance in Sub‐Saharan Africa

Food and Energy Security, Volume 15, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
This study integrates smartphone‐based AI diagnostics with LAMP molecular confirmation for banana disease surveillance across Sub‐Saharan Africa. By enabling real‐time phenotypic screening, detection of asymptomatic BBTV infections, and centralized geospatial data integration, the platform transforms field‐level diagnostics into a scalable biosecurity ...

Non-Synergistic Effect of Trichoderma harzianum and Glomus spp. in Reducing Infection of Fusarium Wilt in Banana

Pathogens, 2019
Philippine banana is currently threatened by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense Tropical Race 4 (FocR4). This study investigated the use of Trichoderma harzianum pre-treated with Glomus spp, as a means of managing Fusarium wilt on young ‘Lakatan’ banana ...

Plant Disease Biology: Integrating Molecular, Ecological and Management Perspectives

Journal of Phytopathology, Volume 174, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Plant diseases remain a major constraint on global food security and ecosystem stability, yet plant disease biology has long been shaped by fragmented and reductionist frameworks. Classical concepts, such as the disease triangle, have provided valuable heuristic guidance but are increasingly insufficient to capture the dynamic, multiscale and ...

Strategies to revise agrosystems and breeding to control Fusarium wilt of banana

Nature Food, 2020
The recent emergence of the fungus Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense tropical race 4 (Foc TR4), the deadly strain that causes Fusarium wilt of banana, has put the banana production chain for export under threat. Here, we propose research priorities and complementary strategies and challenges for effective and efficient mitigation management of Fusarium

Isolation of Burkholderia sp. HQB-1, A Promising Biocontrol Bacteria to Protect Banana Against Fusarium Wilt Through Phenazine-1-Carboxylic Acid Secretion

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Fusarium wilt is a devastating soil-borne fungal disease caused by Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. cubense (Foc). In recent years, some antifungal bacteria have been applied for the prevention and biocontrol of pathogenic fungi. In our study, a bacterial strain

Evaluation of transgenic bananas expressing anti-apoptotic genes for resistance against Fusarium wilt [PDF]

, 2015
The banana industry worldwide is under threat from a fungal disease known as Fusarium wilt, a disease for which there is no chemical control. Conventional breeding approaches to generate resistant banana varieties are lengthy and very difficult. As such,
