Banana (Musa) is one of the most important economic and staple crops in the world. The majority of edible cultivated banana species arises from two species of the Eumusa group, Musa acuminata (A genome) and Musa balbisiana(B genome). In order to assess the biochemical diversity that exists in our...

A metabolomics approach to the assessment of banana diversity and traits
Banana is a fruit crop with a complex diversity pattern resulting from a complex domestication scheme. Due to the availability of plant genome sequences and to the accessibility of next-generation genotyping technologies, Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS) have been increasingly performed in ...

Refinement and standardization of storage procedures for clonal crops. Global Public Goods Phase 2. Part 3: Multi-crop guidelines for developing in vitro conservation best practices for clonal crops
Shoot cultures of 401 banana clones were conserved under slow growth conditions (16±1°C, 25μmol m−2 s−1). Storage duration-defined as 60% survival time of 20 shoot cultures of a clone-averaged 334 days. However, large differences occurred among the different genomic (sub)groups and even within th...

Application of NGS-generated SNP data to complex crops studies: the example of Musa spp. (banana).
The production of bananas is threatened by rapid spreading of various diseases and adverse environmental conditions. The preservation and characterization of banana diversity is essential for the purposes of crop improvement. The world's largest banana germplasm collection maintained at the Biove...

DArT whole genome profiling provides insights on the evolution and taxonomy of edible Banana (Musa spp.)
Banana (Musa sp.) is a vegetatively propagated, low fertility, potentially hybrid and polyploid crop. These qualities make the breeding and targeted genetic improvement of this crop a difficult and long process. The Genome-Wide Association Study (GWAS) approach is becoming widely used in crop pla...
