CRISPR/Cas9-mediated transformation enables functional characterization of the effector <i>Avr4</i> in the banana pathogen <i>Pseudocercospora fijiensis</i>

2026-08-11

Abstract excerpt

Pseudocercospora fijiensis is the causal agent of Black Leaf Streak Disease (BLSD), also known as black Sigatoka, in banana. The disease affects many banana varieties, including the highly susceptible Cavendish banana that dominates global production and the export trade, and several cooking bananas that are a staple food for hundreds of millions of people worldwide. Currently, the disease is controlled using prev...
