Improvement of bananas for black sigatoka and Panama disease resistance through genetic manipulation
Bananas are a staple food in Eastern Africa, with 25.3% of the total world production. The production is, however, threatened by the presence of several diseases, of which the fungal diseases black sigatoka and Panama disease are the most important. With the development of embryogenic cell suspensio...
