Nyine, MosesUwimana, BrigitteSwennen, RonyBatte, MichaelBrown, A.Christelova, PavlaHribova, E.Lorenzen, JimDoležel, Jaroslav[Trait variation in a banana training population for genomic selection.]Trait variation in a banana training population for genomic selection.

Bananas (Musa spp.) are consumed worldwide as dessert and cooking types. Edible banana varieties are for the most part seedless and sterile and therefore vegetatively propagated. This confers difficulties for breeding approaches against pressing biotic and abiotic threats and for the nutritional ...


Drapal, Margitde Carvalho, E.B.Rouard, M.Amah, D.Sardos, J.Houwe, I. van denBrown, A.Roux, N.Swennen, R.Fraser, Paul D.[Metabolite profiling characterises chemotypes of Musa diploids and triploids at juvenile and preflowering growth stages]Metabolite profiling characterises chemotypes of Musa diploids and triploids at juvenile and preflowering growth stages

Vitamin A deficiency (VAD) is one of the most prevalent micronutrient deficiencies that disproportionately affects low income populations in developing countries. Traditional breeding and modern biotechnology have significant potential to enhance micronutrient bioavailability in crops through bio...


Amah, D.Biljon, A. vanBrown, A.Perkins-Veazie, P.Swennen, R.Labuschagne, M.T.[Recent advances in banana (Musa spp.) biofortification to alleviate vitamin A deficiency]Recent advances in banana (Musa spp.) biofortification to alleviate vitamin A deficiency

Improving the efficiency of selection in conventional crossbreeding is a major priority in banana (Musa spp.) breeding. Routine application of classical marker assisted selection (MAS) is lagging in banana due to limitations in MAS tools. Genomic selection (GS) based on genomic prediction models ...


Nyine, M.Uwimana, B.Blavet, N.Hřibová, E.Vanrespaille, H.Batte, M.Akech, V.Brown, A.Lorenzen, J.H.Swennen, R.L.Doležel, Jaroslav[Genomic prediction in a multiploid crop: genotype by environment interaction and allele dosage effects on predictive ability in banana]Genomic prediction in a multiploid crop: genotype by environment interaction and allele dosage effects on predictive ability in banana

Bananas and plantains are one of the most important crops in the world, yet very few hybrids are cultivated. Bananas face considerable pressure from multiple biotic and abiotic stresses, but its genetic improvement is impeded by constraints on seed set due to multiple physiological and reproducti...


Brown, A.Tumuhimbise, R.Amah, D.Uwimana, B.Nyine, M.Mduma, H.Talengera, D.Karamura, D.Kuriba, J.Swennen, R.L.[Bananas and Plantains (Musa spp.)]Bananas and Plantains (Musa spp.)

Banana and plantain (Musa spp.) are important food crops in tropical and subtropical regions of the world where they generate millions of dollars annually to both subsistence farmers and exporters. Since 1902, Pseudocercospora banana pathogens, Pseudocercospora fijiensis, P. musae and P. eumusae,...


Alakonya, A.E.Kimunye, J.Mahuku, George S.Amah, D.Uwimana, B.Brown, A.Swennen, R.L.[Progress in understanding Pseudocercospora banana pathogens and the development of resistant Musa germplasm]Progress in understanding Pseudocercospora banana pathogens and the development of resistant Musa germplasm

East African highland bananas (EAHB) were regarded as sterile. Their screening for female fertility with “Calcutta 4” as male parent revealed that 37 EAHB were fertile. This was the foundation for the establishment of the EAHB crossbreeding programs by the International Institute of Tropical Agri...


Batte, M.Swennen, R.Uwimana, B.Akech, V.Brown, A.Tumuhimbise, R.Hovmalm, H.P.Geleta, M.Ortiz, R.[Crossbreeding east African highland bananas: lessons learnt relevant to the botany of the crop after 21 years of genetic enhancement]Crossbreeding east African highland bananas: lessons learnt relevant to the botany of the crop after 21 years of genetic enhancement
