During the Webinar, we will talk about:
- Musaceae (plantains and bananas) are synonymous with food security and livelihoods for more than 400 million people in the world. The tropical race 4 of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense (Foc R4T) is undoubtedly the biggest phytosanitary threat to the sector worldwide, but it is not the only one. This conference will address the main quarantine diseases of Musaceae, emphasizing diagnosis, epidemiology and management options.
