Abstract
A total of 59 Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense (FOC) isolates were analysed using ERIC-PCR, RAMS and RFLP-IGS. The three molecular techniques showed intraspecific variation among the FOC isolates, whereby 34 ERIC banding patterns, 33 IGS haplotypes and 13 – 26 microsatellite banding patterns were generated. The banding patterns generated using each technique were highly variable, but showed similarities among the FOC isolates. UPGMA cluster analyses based on ERIC-PCR (15.4% - 100%) and RAMS (11.1% - 100%) showed similarity values very close to those generated based on combined data (11.0% - 100%) of the three techniques, while RFLP-IGS showed higher similarity values of approximately 60% - 100% among the FOC isolates.
