The effect of processing on the proximate and mineral composition, as well as pasting properties of whole flour produced from a selection of new Musa hybrids generated by the International Institute ofTropical Agriculture (IITA) was investigated. Results show that blanching had signiftcant effect...

Fresh pulp from freshly harvested plantain and chips colour as well as the effect of processing and storage on the colour of plantain and banana hybrids Jlour were investigated. Colour values L* (degree of lightness), a* (degree of redness) and b* (degree of yellowness) were detennined with focus...

Plantain and banana hybrid varieties that are resistant to black Sigatoka disease .(a leave disease reported to have caused between 30-50% yield loss in plantain across the wortd) were disseminated by IITA plantain improvement programme in three southern states of Nigeria. This study was designed...

Reproductive growth in polyarchic Musa spp. varieties occurs by the simultaneous growth of several shoots, resulting in competitive inhibition of fruit development in the individual shoots, particularly under poor soil fertility conditions. Nine plantain genotypes were forced into single-culm gro...

The East African highland banana (Musa spp. AAA) is an economically important food crop. The crop is affected by a number of diseases and pests. Genetic improvement of the crop is hindered by very low seed set and poor seed germination. The objective of this study was to compare seed set, seed qu...

Seed production from hybridizations involving the East African Highland bananas (Mum spp., AAA group) is low due to high levels of sterility. This is a major impediment for the development of hybrids with disease and pest resistance and superior agronomic traits. The objective of this study was t...

The harvest index (HI), which is the ratio of the economic yield to the aboveground plant biomass, is an important trait to assess progress in improving yield potential. Therefore, a study was carried out to examine the assimilate partitioning of nine Musa hybrids along with a local check for two...
