Sigatoka leaf spot disease limits banana production. Breeding for resistance is the most effective method to control Musa diseases. However, Musa improvement using conventional methods is difficult due to lack of genetic variability, hence biotechnology. Marker-assisted selection is a reliable method to improve disease resistance in Musa. This study was to identify markers that may be linked to Sigatoka leaf spot disease in Musa, using RAPDs and converting such into SCAR. A total of 102 oligonucleotide OPERON primers were used to screen genomic DNA from resistant and susceptible cultivars with...
