“…Consequently, the use of resistant cultivars is the most efficient way to control FW (Li et al 2013;Costa et al 2015;Haddad et al 2018). Banana genotypes have been evaluated via the banana breeding program of Embrapa in Brazil to detect genotypes resistant to the pathogens among diploid accessions with an appropriate level of genetic variability, such as M53, Jaran, Birmanie, Pipit, and Malaccensis and between the Figo type and Silver type genotypes with Foc race 1 resistance alleles (Silva et al 2011;Rebouças et al 2018;Ribeiro et al 2018).…”

Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense (Foc) causes Panama disease or Fusarium wilt of bananas. The association between soil-inhabiting fungi and nematodes can increase the severity of symptoms and suppress the resistance of plants to diseases. In this study, the interaction between Foc race 1 and Radopholus similis, a burrowing nematode that parasitizes banana plants, was analyzed using one moderately susceptible cultivar and seven resistant cultivars of banana. Two Foc isolates that differed in virulence were tested. The analyses of symptoms and stained fungal structures in the roots demonstrated that R. similis interacting with Foc in different inoculation sequences caused changes in symptom severity and the resistance pattern to Foc isolate 0801 (race 1) in cultivars ‘Terra Maranhão’, ‘BRS Pacovan Ken’, ‘BRS Vitória’, and ‘BRS Platina’. The data generated in this study have relevant implications for banana breeding programs in the classification of cultivars for durable resistance to Fusarium wilt and for understanding pathogen interactions during occurrence of the disease.

Edible bananas (Musa spp. section Eumusa) are parthenocarpic, triploid or tetraploid fruits and are usually sterile due to the cross between species and subspecies of M. acuminata ('A' genome) or crosses of M. acuminata with M. Balbisiana ('B' genome; Von Loesecke, 1950). The banana fruits are recognised as the fourth most important food in the world, behind rice, wheat, and corn (FAO, 2018). In the world fruticulture, its production is in fourth place, after grapes, citrus fruits, and apples (Surendar, Rajendran, et al., 2013). Bananas are typical of tropical to subtropical climate regions, and consequently better performance is expected in places where annual precipitation exceeds 1000 mm/year (Robinson & Alberts, 1986). Nevertheless, these typically humid sites also offer ideal conditions for the development of fungal diseases, increasing production costs with fungicides, and reducing profits (Jesus Júnior et al., 2008). In addition to the biotic factors that affect the production, such as yellow and black Sigatoka, Fusarium wilt, and nematodes, there are abiotic factors, such as water deficit, salinity, and extreme temperatures (Carvalho et al., 2012).

“…Therefore, the paper by García-Bastides et al is fundamentally important as it describes the development of a standard operational procedure to screen germplasm for resistance to TR4, including an inoculum production protocol and additional methodologies underpinning a “high throughput phenotyping system.” In addition, the paper describes how visual scoring is complemented with more objective data capture involving image analysis, contributing to overall reproducibility. A glasshouse-based screening method under controlled conditions using specific pathogen genotypes enables reproducible results in a short period of time, thereby speeding up progress in breeding (Smith et al, 2008 ; Rebouças et al, 2018 ).…”

Editorial on the Research Topic Fusarium Wilt of Banana, a Recurring Threat to Global Banana Production THE TOPICThis Research Topic contains a selection of papers dealing with Fusarium wilt of banana (FWB), also known as Panama disease, that investigate (i) the epidemiology, distribution, infection biology, and diversity of the pathogen, (ii) management practices, and (iii) ways to identify and screen for resistance. The Research Topic arose from the increasing spread and the growing global impact of FWB, affecting a wide range of banana production systems worldwide.During the inception of this Research Topic an increased understanding of genetic diversity of Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. cubense (Foc), traditionally considered as the causal agent of FWB, emerged and showed that Foc comprises several different Fusarium species (Ploetz, 2006;Maryani et al., 2019). The so-called Tropical Race 4 (TR4) was found to be genetically distant from other FWB causing species and was described as Fusarium odoratissimum (Maryani et al., 2019).Different strains of this Fusarium species have affected banana production worldwide. Prior to the 1960s, the spread of FWB was primarily caused by so-called Race 1 strains that caused severe losses in the production and export trade in Latin America, which was based almost entirely on the highly susceptible cultivar Gros Michel. The failing management of FWB in Gros Michel eventually convinced the export companies to convert the business to resistant Cavendish cultivars.TR4 first emerged in Southeast Asia (Ploetz, 1990) and its current rapid spread was analyzed by Ordonez et al. (2015). Subsequent studies showed that the TR4 strain is extremely virulent toward many banana cultivars, including Cavendish cultivars grown in large-scale monoculture plantations for export markets and many banana varieties important for food security and domestic consumption. There are no readily available solutions to manage this disease. Moreover, this global threat connects export trade, strongly dependent on the susceptible Cavendish cultivars, to local production systems wherein a range of banana varieties contributing to food security are also impacted.This Research Topic aims to provide a platform for information exchange and knowledge sharing. The contributions demonstrate an active research community in search of effective control of FWB. Taken together, the papers provide an overview of our current understanding of the
