Jeff,
I think we probably need more details. Do you have a plant that is currently looking sick or are you just worried your plants may contract this disease? If you have an ailing banana pictures would be helpful.

thanks for replying Brent, no none of my nanas look sick, just concerned if one can get the fungus easy, then could it be transfered to the others. or am i being parinoid?

I'm sure that there are others on this site who are much more knowledgable than I about some of the banana diseases, such as Sigatoka. I have been fortunate not to have any issues with diseases as of yet. Hopefully someone else will be able to advise you.
