The main objecive of this study was to develop a fast and species-specific PCR-based detection method for the presence ofMycosphaerella species on banana. The methods include collection of specimens, morphological identification supported by molecular phylogenetic analysis, RFLP analysis, species-specific primers development, and validation. Two species ofMycosphaerella , namely, M. fijiensisand M. musicola , and one unidentified Pseudocercospora species were found in Java Island. Three restriction enzymes used in the RFLP analysis, viz, AluI, HaeIII, and TaqI were capable to discriminateM. eumusae , M. fijiensis , and M. musicola . Two species-specific primer pairs, viz, MfijF/MfijR and MmusF/MmusR have been successfully developed to detect the presence ofM. fijiensis and M. musicola , respectively. Key words: banana, detection, fungi,Mycosphaerella leaf spot, phytopathology INTRODUCTION Indonesia is one of banana production zones in Southeast Asia. However, crop losses from global climate change and fungal pathogens pose a serious threat not only to Indonesia, but also to global food security. Therefore, these threats should not be underestimated. Among the banana pathogens, three morphologically similar species, viz,Mycosphaerella fijiensis (black leaf streak disease/black Sigatoka), M.

  • Sigatoka Diseases Control
    1 /4 SIGATOKA DISEASES CONTROL Yellow and Black Sigatoka are banana leaf diseases caused by fungi. They cause significant drying of the leaf surface. The fungi spread in two ways: - by water which carries the conidia (asexual form CONTROL of reproduction) from the upper to the lower leaves S E and suckers, S Conidia - yellow and black Sigatoka - by wind which carries the ascospores (sexual form EA of reproduction) in all directions. S The control of Sigatoka(s) enables the plant to conserve a sufficient number of healthy leaves up to harvest to ensure the normal growth of the fruit. The disease reduces the leaf surface and causes disturbances in the functioning of the plant, leading to a reduction in yield and quality DI SIGATOKA (particularly a higher risk of fast ripening). 1. YELLOW SIGATOKA OR LEAF STREAK DISEASE 2. BLACK SIGATOKA OR BLACK LEAF STREAK DISEASE (Mycosphaerella musicola) (Mycosphaerella fijiensis): A MORE VIRULENT FUNGUS The development of the fungus occurs in five stages: Black Sigatoka is present in almost all tropical banana producing FOR YELLOW SIGATOKA zones but its arrival in the Lesser Antilles is very recent (2009- Stage 1: A tiny yellow spot or light green streak on the upper surface of 2010). leaves. > Hardly observable.

  • Lecture 03 - Diseases of Banana (2 Lectures)
    Lecture 03 - Diseases of Banana (2 Lectures) Panama disease :Fusarium oxysporum f. spcubense Economic Importance The first major disease which attacked banana was called Panama disease from the area where it first became serious. Banana wilt is a soil-borne fungal disease and gets entry in the plant body through roots and wounds caused by nematodes. It is most serious in poorly drained soil. Disease spreads through infected suckers. Symptoms Yellowing of the lower most leaves starting from margin to midrib of the leaves. Yellowing extends upwards and finally heart leaf alone remains green for some time and it is also affected. The leaves break near the base and hang down around pseudostem. Longitudinal splitting of pseudostem. Discolouration of vascular vessels as red or brown streaks. The fungus spreads through use of infected rhizomes Continuous cultivation results in build up of inoculum. Pathogen Mycelium is septate, hyaline and branched. Fungus produces micro, macro conidia and also chlamydospores. Micro conidia - Single celled or rarely one septate hyaline elliptical or oval. Macro conidia - Sickle shaped hyaline, 3-5 septate and tapering at both ends. Chalamydospores - Thick walled, spherical to oval, hyaline to slightly yellowish in colour. Mode of spread and survival The pathogen is soil borne. It survives in soil as chlamydospores for longer periods. The primary spread of the disease is through infected rhizomes and secondary spread is through irrigation water. Continuous cultivation results in build up of inoculum. Management Avoid growing of susceptible cultivars viz., Rasthali, Monthan, Red banana and Virupakshi. Grow resistant cultivar Poovan. Since nematode predispose the disease pairing and prolinage wit Carbofuran granules.

The teleomorph name, Mycosphaerella eumusae, and its anamorph, Pseudo- cercospora eumusae, are validated for the banana disease formerly known as Septoria leaf spot. This disease has been found on different Musa culti- vars from tropical countries such as southern India, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Malaysia, Vietnam, Mauritius and Nigeria. It is contrasted with two similar species, namely Mycosphaerella fijiensis (black leaf streak or black Sigatoka disease) and Mycosphaerella musicola (Sigatoka disease). Although the teleo- morphs of these three species are morphologically similar, they are phylogene- tically distinct and can also be distinguished based upon the morphology of their anamorphs.

Raymond Kessler, Jr., Professor of Horticulture Esendugue Greg Fonsah, Professor and Extension Specialist of Agriculture and Applied Economics, University of Georgia, Tifton Campus, Tifton, GA 31793 Abstract There has been increased interest in growing and selecting cold-hardy short- season cultivars to offer an alternative to the industry standard, the Cavendish (genome AAA). In addition to expansion of production, these specialty cultivars have advantages such as increased nutritional qualities, resistance to disease, and favorable postharvest attributes. The determination of suitable alternatives to the Cavendish subgroup is a relatively new concept; therefore very little research has been done regarding the postharvest and nutritional properties of these specialty cultivars. The goal of the first experiment was to determine the effect of common postharvest practices and length of storage on the quality and nutrition of specialty bananas grown in the southeastern

  • Multiple Gene Genealogies and Phenotypic Characters Differentiate Several Novel Species of Mycosphaerella and Related Anamorphs on Banana
    Persoonia 20, 2008: 19–37 www.persoonia.org RESEARCH ARTICLE doi:10.3767/003158508X302212 Multiple gene genealogies and phenotypic characters differentiate several novel species of Mycosphaerella and related anamorphs on banana M. Arzanlou 1,2, J.Z. Groenewald 1, R.A. Fullerton 3, E.C.A. Abeln 4, J. Carlier 5, M.-F. Zapater 5, I.W. Buddenhagen 6, A. Viljoen 7, P.W. Crous 1,2 Key words Abstract Three species of Mycosphaerella, namely M. eumusae, M. fijiensis, and M. musicola are involved in the Sigatoka disease complex of bananas. Besides these three primary pathogens, several additional species of Mycosphaerella Mycosphaerella or their anamorphs have been described from Musa. However, very little is known about these taxa, phylogeny and for the majority of these species no culture or DNA is available for study. In the present study, we collected a Sigatoka disease complex global set of Mycosphaerella strains from banana, and compared them by means of morphology and a multi-gene taxonomy nucleotide sequence data set. The phylogeny inferred from the ITS region and the combined data set containing partial gene sequences of the actin gene, the small subunit mitochondrial ribosomal DNA and the histone H3 gene revealed a rich diversity of Mycosphaerella species on Musa. Integration of morphological and molecular data sets confirmed more than 20 species of Mycosphaerella (incl. anamorphs) to occur on banana. This study reconfirmed the previously described presence of Cercospora apii, M. citri and M. thailandica, and also identified Mycosphaerella communis, M. lateralis and Passalora loranthi on this host. Moreover, eight new species identified from Musa are described, namely Dissoconium musae, Mycosphaerella mozambica, Pseudocercospora assamensis, P.
