| dc.description.abstract | Tissue culture is an asexual micropropagation process of mass production of disease-free banana seedlings under laboratory condition that requires complete absence of fungal contaminants on pure culture. This study was conducted to identify the different fungal contaminants affecting in-vitro grown banana seedlings. It was conducted at the Crop Protection Laboratory, JICA Building, DMMMSU-NLUC, Bacnotan, La Union from August 15, 2007 to January 12, 2008 to generate benchmark information in establishing protocols in reducing loss of viable cultures due to contamination. Results showed that there were five genera of fungi commonly associated with invitro grown banana seedlings at the DMMMSU-NLUC Tissue Culture Laboratory i.e. Rhizopus, the most abundant contaminant, followed by Sclerotium, Penicillium, Fusarium, and Aspergillus. | |
