Banana and plantains is the most important tropical fruit crop in the world, which serves as a major food and source of income in many countries. Bananas are severely infected by several pathogens one such Fusarium oxysoporum f. sp. Cubense which causes significant crop losses in the fields. In this study fusarium wilt screening was carried out on chemically induced mutants and molecular analysis was done to assess the acquired resistance to Fusarium oxysoporum f. sp. cubense. | Early screening of fusarium wilt and molecular analysis of banana variants
