Implication

Analysis reveals BSV species presence in Brazilian banana germplasm, indicating need for screening methods.

Key Points

  • About 14% of interspecific hybrids were found infected by banana streak virus, indicating a prevalent risk.
  • All eight diploid accessions with BB genome had infective eBSOLV and eBSGFV alleles but remained episomally uninfected.
  • Molecular characterization of BSV species was conducted across 300 banana accessions and 38 in vitro samples including genome types.
  • The findings emphasize the importance of developing screening methods for disease prediction in banana breeding programs.
