Abstract:Bananas, a staple food globally and a key agricultural commodity, face a severe threat from the fungus Fusarium oxysporum form specialis cubense (Foc), significantly impacting production. Genetic improvement to develop resistant cultivars stands out as a crucial strategy to mitigate this disease. This study focused on assessing and recommending enhanced diploid banana varieties for resistance against Foc subtropical race 4 (ST4) and Foc race 1 (R1). Twenty-five improved diploids developed by Embrapa, Brazil, u… Show more
