“…Foc race 4 was reported in Taiwan in 1967 [ 20 ] and Foc TR4 in Indonesia and Malaysia in the 1990s [ 9 , 48 ]. In the Philippines, Foc race 4 infections on Cavendish were reported as early as the 1970s [ 49 ]. The causal Foc strain was identified as VCG 0122 [ 50 ], which is regarded as less virulent to Cavendish bananas than VCG 01213/16.…”

Fusarium oxysporum formae specialis cubense (Foc) is a soil-borne fungus that causes Fusarium wilt, which is considered to be the most destructive disease of bananas. The fungus is believed to have evolved with its host in the Indo-Malayan region, and from there it was spread to other banana-growing areas with infected planting material. The diversity and distribution of Foc in Asia was investigated. A total of 594 F. oxysporum isolates collected in ten Asian countries were identified by vegetative compatibility groups (VCGs) analysis. To simplify the identification process, the isolates were first divided into DNA lineages using PCR-RFLP analysis. Six lineages and 14 VCGs, representing three Foc races, were identified in this study. The VCG complex 0124/5 was most common in the Indian subcontinent, Vietnam and Cambodia; whereas the VCG complex 01213/16 dominated in the rest of Asia. Sixty-nine F. oxysporum isolates in this study did not match any of the known VCG tester strains. In this study, Foc VCG diversity in Bangladesh, Cambodia and Sri Lanka was determined for the first time and VCGs 01221 and 01222 were first reported from Cambodia and Vietnam. New associations of Foc VCGs and banana cultivars were recorded in all the countries where the fungus was collected. Information obtained in this study could help Asian countries to develop and implement regulatory measures to prevent the incursion of Foc into areas where it does not yet occur. It could also facilitate the deployment of disease resistant banana varieties in infested areas.

“…When compared with bananas propagated by conventional planting material, i.e. In general, micropropagated banana plants established more quickly, grew more vigorously, were taIler, had a shorter and more uniform pro-duction period, and produced higher yields than conventional propagules (Arias and Valverde, 1987;Daniells, 1988;Drew and Smith, 1990;Espino et al, 1992;Hwang et al, 1984;Israeli et al, 1988;Kwa and Ganry, 1990;Robinson et al, 1993;Zamora et al, 1989).

Aims and ScopeThe book series is intended for readers ranging from advanced students to senior research scientists and corpomte directors interested in acquiring in-depth, state-of-the-art knowledge about research findings and techniques related to all aspects of agricultural biotechnology. Although the previous volumes in the series dealt with plant science and biotechnology, the aim is now to also include volumes dealing with animals science, food science and rnicrobiology. While the subject matter will relate more particularly to agricultural applications, timely topics in basic science and biotechnology will also be explored. Some volumes will report progress in rapidly advancing disciplines through proceedings of symposia and workshops while others will detail fundamental information of an enduring nature that will be referenced repeatedly.The titles published in this series are listed at the end ofthis volume.
