Banana (Musa spp.) is one of the most important commercial fruit crops especially in the tropics. Of the many diseases occurring on banana, sigatoka leaf spot disease incited by Mycosphaerella musicola Leach, is considered as serious threat to world banana production. Given the importance of yellow Sigatoka in banana plantations and lack of information on its epidemiology, the present study was conducted to assess the incidence of Sigatoka leaf spot in banana plants cultivated through organics manures and inorganic fertilizer.

Rhizome rot or tip over disease of banana has been occurring in serious form and affecting the yield wherever bananas are being cultivated. The morphological characteristics of the eighteen isolates of the bacterium revealed that cells were rod shaped, occurred singly, Gram negative and peritrichously flagellated. The pathogen was identified on the basis of cultural, morphological and biochemical characteristics and its pathogenicity in banana was proved using Koch‟s postulates.

Studies were conducted to know varietal response on plantlet regeneration through macropropagation in banana. Many varieties and cultivars were grown in different regions of country and there is a need to know which variety will respond well to macro-propagation. Three commercially cultivated varieties were taken for experiment viz., Ney Poovan, Rajapuri and Grand Naine.

Mapping of livelihood capitals was done among 60 elephant foot yam and 60 banana growing farmers using snow ball sampling in East Godavari and West Godavari districts of Andhra Pradesh. Data were collected using PRA tools, interview schedule and focus group discussions during August 2018 to January 2019. Rural Sustainable Livelihood Index (RSLI) was arrived by using the DFID methodology.

The study was undertaken to isolate the DNA of good quality from the banana wilt pathogen Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense (Foc) directly from infected tissues for molecular studies. In this method, laborious and time-consuming procedures such as isolation of the pathogen and its artificial cultivation are avoided. Moreover, grinding of the fungal mycelium using liquid nitrogen is also not needed as the DNA is directly extracting from infected banana tissues.

Globally, banana is the maximum distributed fruit crop and is the fourth most important commodity and is grown in more than 130 countries across the world, continuously exhibiting a spectacular growth pattern worldwide in an area of 6507.7 million ha producing 98946 million tones. India is the largest producer of banana in the world. There are diverse germplasms of banana traditionally cultivated in different regions of India having remarkable genetic differences. Traditional procedure to characterize banana plants by morphological descriptors has many limitations.

The field experiment was conducted at the Research Farm, BCKV, West Bengal to study the yield and economics for banana cultivation with drip fertigation. The drip fertigation was done at four evapotranspiration (ET) based irrigation levels (D1=0.6 ET, D2=0.8 ET, D3=1.0 ET for drip and surface irrigation (S) at IW/CPE 1.0) and at three fertilizer levels of recommended doses of fertilizer (RDF) viz., F1=60% RDF, F2=80% RDF and F3=100% RDF laid out in factorial randomized block design with three replications.

The cultivar Robusta forms the mainstay of commercial banana cultivation in India. An efficient micropropagation system with high multiplication rate will boost banana cultivation and assist banana based industries in the country. The shoot apices of banana cv. Robusta were cultured on two basal media MS and B5 supplemented with different concentrations and combinations of plant growth regulators (PGR). The tissue culture responses were observed for shoot multiplication and effect of subculture on rate of shoot multiplication till 8th subculture.

India has been predominantly agrarian economy since time immemorial. Development efforts over the last four decades have doubtless strengthened our industrial base. The banana in the state has been reportedly being cultivated under traditional manner. By and large, the farmers are cultivating only the traditional varieties of banana. Perishability is one of the important constraints in banana production and marketing. Processing opportunities are absent to a great extent.

Cold stress is one of the most severe abiotic stresses affecting the banana production. Although some miRNAs have been identified, little is known about the role of miRNAs in response to cold stress in banana, and up to date, there is no report about the role of miRNAs in the response to cold stress in the plants of the cultivated or wild bananas.

In an investigation carried out at the Horticultural Research Station of Orissa University of Agriculture and Technology, Bhubaneswar during 2012-13 and 2013-14 banana was tried along with 4 intercrops, Glyricidia maculeata leaf manure and polyethylene mulch to mitigate the effects of reducing soil quality and productivity and improve farm profitability. Green manuring crops in the banana plantation improved soil organic carbon, microbial biomass carbon and available nutrients of the soil besides maintaining overall soil quality.

Sigatoka leaf spot disease of banana is spreading at a faster rate causing a serious threat to banana cultivation in Kerala, the southern most state of Indian peninsula which enjoys a humid tropical climate. A survey was conducted under different agro-climatic zones prevailing in the state to study and document the symptomatology and etiology of the pathogen inciting Sigatoka leaf spot disease of banana occurring in the state of Kerala. The disease was noticed in most of the commercially grown varieties of banana viz.

The production and productivity of banana is governed by many biotic and abiotic factors. Among biotic factors, incidence of insect-pests is considered as one of the major hindrance in successful cultivation of banana. In India, about eight pests commonly infest the banana crops; but of these, the banana stem weevil (Odoiporus longicollis) is cosmopolite’s insect pest that threatens the banana cultivation.

Banana (Musa paradiscica L) is a very important fruit crop. It ranks second in the table of importance after mango. It can be grown in tropical and sub-tropical regions. It is grown for its commercial importance since it has both medicinal properties and nutritive value. Due to its qualitative property and high nutritive value banana enjoy its significance in the community. Keeping in view its high commercial importance, an on farm trial was designed for standardization of fertilizer in banana for quality yield.

This paper explore spatial and temporal dimensions of farm diversification of Cauvery Delta Zone (CDZ) for 20 years. In addition, it focuses on percentage of deviations from average area under cultivation of major crops in CDZ. Paddy is the major crop cultivated in CDZ. It accounted for nearly 65 percent of the gross cropped area. Recently farmers in the CDZ are shifting from paddy to diversified crops. Hence to examine this issue the study was taken up.
