Evaluation of different banana genotypes for pomological characters and resistance against Fusarium wilt using molecular marker

Abstract

This experiment has been conducted to study the genetic variability based on morphological and pomological characteristics of banana and phylogenetic analysis of various banana genotypes based on molecular markers against the Fusarium wilt during the year 2014-2016. As many as 28 genotypes viz. FHIA-23, Dwarf Cavendish, Gandevi Selection, Grand Naine, Jahaji, Lalkel, Robusta, newlineAlpan, Bareli Chinia, Chinia, Chinia Ratwara, Doodhsagar, Kalibel, Marthman, Marthman Nemopur, Marthman Simra, Malbhog Barhari, Panchanan, Poovan, Rasthali, Bersain, Kanchkel, Kanthali, Kothia, Lambee, Panchabantha Battisa, Udhayam and Saba-8 were collected from R.A.U., Pusa for this study. newline newline
