• Effect of endophytic Beauveria bassiana on populations of the banana weevil, Cosmopolites sordidus, and their damage in tissue‐cultured banana plants (2008, background): “The banana weevil, Cosmopolites sordidus (Germar) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), remains the worst pest of banana in East Africa (Gold et al., 2004), causing up to 100% in crop losses (Koppenhofer et al., 1994).”
• Yield Effects of Tissue Culture Bananas in Kenya: Accounting for Selection Bias and the Role of Complementary Inputs (2012, background): “Gold et al. (2004) showed that the peak is reached after 4-5 years under typical conditions in East Africa, although this may vary depending on pest pressure and orchard management.”
