Fusarium wilt, caused by the fungus .Fusarium oxysporum. f.sp. .cubense., is one of the most destructive diseases of banana globally. Since the 1990s, an aggressive variant of this fungus, called Tropical Race 4 (TR4), severely affected banana plantations in Southeast Asia from where it spread to other continents, including Latin America, where the global banana export market is primarily centred. TR4 is a soil borne pathogen making the disease difficult to contain. .The Joint FAO/IAEA Centre of Nuclear Techniques in Food and Agriculture implemented a Coordinated Research Project (CRP) ‘Efficient Screening Techniques to Identify Mutants with Disease Resistance for Coffee and Banana” (2015-2020). This CRP brought together experts from Asia, Europe and Africa in addition to experts of the Joint FAO/IAEA Centre to develop resistance against TR4 through mutation-assisted breeding. Induced mutagenesis is particularly attractive in case of banana since most cultivated bananas are seedless, thus hampering conventional cross breeding..This Open Access book is a compilation of the protocols develope | 出版日期 | Book‘‘‘‘‘‘‘‘ 2022 | 关键词 | Musa; Fusarium wilt TR4; mutation breeding; phenotyping; genotyping; NGS; open access | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-662-64915-2 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-662-64917-6 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-662-64915-2 | copyright | IAEA: International Atomic Energy Agency 2022 |
