Influence Of Crop Management And Soil On Plantain [Musa spp. z AAB Group) Response To Black Sigatoka Infection In Southeastern Nigeria [PDF]
An on-farm survey was carried out to assess the severity of black sigatoka caused by Mycosphaerella fijiensis Morelet on plantain in southeastern Nigeria. Two different geomor-phological zones (Meander belts and Coastal plain sands) were surveyed.

Variable number of tandem repeat markers in the genome sequence of Mycosphaerella fijiensis, the causal agent of black leaf streak disease of banana (Musa spp) [PDF]
. We searched the genome of Mycosphaerella fijiensis for molecular markers that would allow population genetics analysis of this plant pathogen. M. fijiensis, the causal agent of banana leaf streak disease, also known as black Sigatoka, is the most ...

Plantain-derived Diploid Hybrids (TMP2x) with Black Sigatoka Resistance [PDF]
Plantain (Musa spp., AAB group), a triploid (2n = 3x = 33) giant perennial herb of the tropics, is a natural interspecific hybrid between the two wild banana species M. acuminata Colla. and M. balbisiana Colla. These diploid species contributed the A and B genomes, respectively (Simmonds, 1962).

Efficient screening procedure for black sigatoka disease of banana
Current methods for screening for reaction of Mycosphaerella fijiensis are mostly field based and subject to variability caused by weather conditions. The objective of this study was to develop an efficient screening procedure for black sigatoka disease in order to provide a reliable controlled environment screening method.
