Abstract

Banana streak virusBSY the causal agent of banana streak diseaseBSD is a member of the genus badnavirus which consists of small non-enveloped bacilliform viruses. BSV sequences were detectedin 54 out of the 330 banana samples screened by Polymerase Chain ReactionPCR. These samples were from more than 80 different cultivars including wild species collected from various regions in Malaysia including Kuala Lumpur Perak lohor and Pahang. BSV was detected only in triploid banana cultivars AAA and AAB. PCR amplification was found to be a rapid and sensitive method of screening for BSV sequences.
