PEGG, R. G.  agenetic variation among a world-wide collection of isolates of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense analysed by RAPD-PCR fingerprinting  c1995  aTobreed or select banana cultivars with durable resistance to Fusarium wilt it is necessary to determine the genetic variation that exists within the pathogen, Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense, as potentially resistant cultivars ideally should have resistance to all variants of the pathogen. We have analysed genetic variation within a world-wide collection of isolates of F. oxysporum f. sp. cubense which represented races 1,2 and 4 and 11 different vegetative compatibility groups (VCGs) using RAPD-PCR. Comparison of the RAPD-PCR banding pattems both visually and by phenetic analysis sub-divided isolates of F. oxysporum f. sp. cubense into two major groups.1 aDALE, J.
