Fusarium wilt of banana (Panama disease), caused by Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. cubense, is a soilborne systemic disease which occludes host vascular system.

CONT

Symptoms of the Panama disease include yellowing of leaves, or premature collapse of leaves ... Examination of a cross section of a pseudostem and/or corm reveals a characteristic discolouration of the vascular bundles, usually stained purplish-brown ... Sometimes the leaf sheaths loosen and/or the pseudostem splits. A severely infected plant fails to flower, or if it does, the bunch fails to develop and fill up.

CONT

La maladie de Panama du bananier, causée par Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. cubense, est une maladie systémique qui obstrue le système vasculaire de l'hôte.

CONT

Le symptôme extérieur classique de la fusariose du bananier est constitué initialement par le jaunissement des marges des feuilles les plus anciennes [...] Le jaunissement s'étend des feuilles les plus anciennes aux plus jeunes. Progressivement, les feuilles s'affaissent au pétiole ou, plus généralement, vers la base de la nervure centrale et pendent, formant une jupe de feuillage mort autour du pseudo-tronc.

En la página sobre el Mal de Panamá explican que esa enfermedad "es muy perjudicial en las plantaciones de bananos en el mundo, por las pérdidas cuantiosas que ha provocado especialmente en la zona altamente productora de la América Central".
