Boiling water treatment: a simple, rapid and effective technique for nematode and banana weevil management in banana and plantain (Musa spp.) planting material
We studied the effect of treating banana and plantain (Musa spp.) suckers using boiling water for the generation of healthy planting material. Small, medium and large-sized suckers of two East African highland bananas (cvs. Mbwazirume, Kibuzi, AAA-EA) and one of plantain (cv. Agbagba, AAB) were dipp...
