Farming System and Nematodes Affect the Rhizosphere Microbiome of Tropical Banana Plants
The banana crops showed a core microbiome of 77 ASV, mostly belonging to Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria, and Bacilli. Specific groups of bacteria and fungi were linked to each nematode species or feeding group, with a core microbiome of correlated taxa found only when considering nematodes by feeding groups.

DBA‐DeepLab: Dual‐Backbone Attention‐Enhanced DeepLab V3+ Model for Plant Disease Segmentation
This study introduces DBA‐DeepLab, a novel plant disease segmentation model that integrates dual backbones—ResNet‐50 and EfficientNet‐B3—with a Convolutional Block Attention Module (CBAM) and Sobel filtering for enhanced accuracy. Trained on the PlantDoc dataset, the model achieves superior performance metrics, including 99.35% accuracy and 100% recall,

Simulation of defoliation caused by Black Sigatoka in the yield and quality of banana 'Nanica ' fruits [PDF]
ABSTRACT: Defoliation caused by Black Sigatoka in yield and quality of banana 'Nanica' was stimulated in this study. A completely randomized 2x8 factorial design with six repetitions was used, in which period of bunch formation and number of leaves at flowering were established as factors.

Nanaga Site of Wasavulu (Labasa, Fiji): Mapping of a Traditional Religious Site of Vanua Levu
ABSTRACT Pre‐Christian religious sites of the Fijian Archipelago have been seldom studied and even less often mapped by archaeologists. This is especially the case for the enigmatic Nanaga enclosures, whose functioning has remained poorly documented by the first ethnographers of the 19th century.

Genetic Improvement of Banana for Resistance to Xanthomonas Wilt in East Africa
ABSTRACT Banana (Musa spp.) is a staple food and income generation crop, feeding millions worldwide. However, the cultivation of bananas is challenging due to biotic and abiotic production constraints. Among these factors are pests and diseases, especially banana bacterial disease.

Control of black Sigatoka disease in bananas
The Australian banana industry is very concerned at the prospect of black Sigatoka moving south from the Torres Strait area to the main commercial production areas.
