Theses & Dissertations Open Access Genetic mapping of root development and resistance to Radopholus similis in a segregating diploid banana population Micheline Inamahoro Radopholus similis (and others nematodes) cause significant damage on banana wherever are grown worldwide. Genetic resistance to nematodes provides a more sustainable management option in resource poor farming systems. New evidence indicat… RUF-35519 2011 CC BY 4.0 29 Sep 2015
Working Document Series Open Access Differential gene expression in nematode-susceptible and -tolerant East African highland bananas following inoculation with non-pathogenic Fusarium oxysporum endophytes D. Coyne · T. Dubois · P. Paparu · A. Viljoen Endophytic non-pathogenic Fusarium oxysporum isolates have been shown to reduce Radopholus similis populations through induced resistance. We used cDNA-AFLPs to identify genes induced in banana plants susceptible (cv Nabusa, AAA-EA) and to… RUF-35131 2010 CC BY 4.0 16 Sep 2015
Working Document Series Open Access Characterization of root development in a segregating diploid banana population as a searching basis for resistance to Radopholus similis M. Inamahoro · J. Lorenzen · H. Talwana Plant parasitic nematodes are recognised as the most serious pests of bananas wherever they are grown. Nematodes feed, multiply and migrate inside banana roots causing necrotic and reduced root systems. Genetic resistance to nematodes prov… RUF-34444 2010 CC BY 4.0 21 Aug 2015
