Thirty-six Musa genotypes, comprising the three major genomic groups (AAA, AAB, ABB) and their hybrids, were evaluated in four environments in Nigeria. Multiple correlation and path coefficient analysis was performed on phenological and yield traits. Bunch weight was more associated with phenolog...

Ploidy and genomic group effects on yield components interaction in bananas and plantains across four environments in Nigeria
The additive main effects and multiplicative interaction (AMMI) model was used to evaluate the stability patterns of 36 Musa genotypes in four cropping environments for bunch weight, pulp weight, and dry matter content. Alleycropping generally induced higher means for all traits than did sole cro...

Yield components of triploid and tetraploid Musa genotypes in Nigeria
Multiple correlation of phenological and yield traits of the plant crop (PC) with those of the first ratoon crop (RC) of 36 Musa genotypes was carried out. The genotypes were landraces (triploid) belonging to AAA, AAB and ABB Musa genomic groups and hybrids (mostly tetraploid) thereof. The plants...

The study was conducted to determine iron, zinc and potassium contents and the proximate qualities of ripe and unripe fruits of five Musa genotypes (‘Agbagba’, ‘FHIA 21’, ‘PITA 14’, ‘PITA 24’ and ‘30456-2’). Methodology and results: The genotypes were grown under organic and inorganic fertilizer...
