Sources of black Sigatoka resistance in wild banana diploids [PDF]
Revista Brasileira de Fruticultura, 2020 Black Sigatoka (black leaf streak disease) is caused by the fungus Mycosphaerella fijiensisMorelet. This phytopathogen colonizes banana leaves, resulting in reduced photosynthesis and decreased productivity.

Genetic Improvement for Resistance to Black Sigatoka in Bananas: A Systematic Review. [PDF]
Front Plant Sci, 2021 Bananas are an important staple food crop in tropical and subtropical regions in Asia, sub-Saharan Africa, and Central and South America. The plant is affected by numerous diseases, with the fungal leaf disease black Sigatoka, caused by Mycosphaerella fijiensis Morelet [anamorph: Pseudocercospora fijiensis (Morelet) Deighton], considered one of the ...

Climate change effects on Black Sigatoka disease of banana. [PDF]
Philos Trans R Soc Lond B Biol Sci, 2019 Climate change has significantly altered species distributions in the wild and has the potential to affect the interactions between pests and diseases and their human, animal and plant hosts. While several studies have projected changes in disease distributions in the future, responses to historical climate change are poorly understood.
