[edit]

Some of the sources from the Cavendish banana article are about the cultivar subgroup and not specifically about Dwarf Cavendish. Also there is information that might cover both subjects. Information from that article should be verified and put into the correct article. See Talk:Cavendish banana - Sidelight12 Talk 01:52, 31 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Disease Resistance

[edit]

The only citation for this section is from 2008. But weren't Cavendish selected for resistance to Panama disease in the 1950s? It is best to use the most recent literature, but it only "suggests" resistance. I think historically there is a lot more to be added. Sigil VII (talk) 14:54, 4 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
