With great knowledge about commercially important edible banana cultivars, Nanjanagudurasabale(one among “Silk” varieties) is being conserved and multiplied by tissue culture method. We took up research task of virus elimination followed by micropropagation resulting in the production of several thousand clonal plants and testing them under field conditions. The tissue culture plants produced good quality fruits and the plants grew without any symptoms of virus infection for over 5-years.
