Sequencing and analysing of the Arabidopsis thaliana genome, the first plant kingdom genome to be unraveled, will always remain a scientific landmark. International initiatives to sequence rice, the most important cereal in Asia, are underway. However as functional information piles up in Arabido...

Bunch weight increase is one of the major objectives of banana improvement programs, but little is known about the loci controlling bunch weight and its component traits. Here we report for the first time some genomic loci associated with bunch weight and its component traits in banana as reveale...


Nyine, M.Uwimana, B.Akech, V.Brown, A.Ortiz, R.Doležel, JaroslavLorenzen, J.Swennen, R.[Association genetics of bunch weight and its component traits in East African highland banana (Musa spp. AAA group).]Association genetics of bunch weight and its component traits in East African highland banana (Musa spp. AAA group).

Secondary triploids were produced by crossing primary tetraploids with selected diploid partners and the parthenocarpic banana (Galeo). Comparisons between secondary tetraploids and secondary triploids showed that the secondary tetraploids generally had lower yields than secondary triploids. The ...

Leaf age effects on the leaf conductance to water vapour diffusion of the adaxial and abaxial leaf surfaces were measured in the morning and in the afternoon on 17 different plantain and banana (Musa spp.) genotypes. The irradiance levels increased three-fold while leaf to air vapour pressure def...


Ekanayake, I.J.Ortiz, R.Vuylsteke, D.R.[Influence of leaf age, soil moisture, VPD and time of day on leaf conductance of various Musa genotypes in a Humid Forest Moist Savanna transition site]Influence of leaf age, soil moisture, VPD and time of day on leaf conductance of various Musa genotypes in a Humid Forest Moist Savanna transition site

Diploid cultivated species, haploids derived from tetraploid cultivars, and their wildSolanum relatives were used to generate various diploid potato genetic stocks. These stocks have significant value in potato breeding because: 1) genetic diversity in the potato population can be kept variable w...

A field experiment was established in the humid forest of southeastern Nigeria to assess host plant response to nematodes. Fifteen plantain and banana polyploid cultivars (landraces and hybrids) were tested in nematode-infested and non-infested fields on both plant and ratoon crops. The main nema...


Dochez, C.Speijer, P.R.Schutter, B. deDubois, T.Tenkouano, A.Waele, D. deOrtiz, R.[Host plant resistance and tolerance of Musa landraces and hybrids to nematode infestation]Host plant resistance and tolerance of Musa landraces and hybrids to nematode infestation

Simple sequence repeats (SSR) or micro-satellites are becoming standard DNA markers for plant genome analysis and are being used as markers in marker assisted breeding. De novo generation of micro-satellite markers through laboratory-based screening of SSR-enriched genomic libraries is highly tim...

Breeding efforts for genetic improvement of banana and plantain have gradually shifted from individual trait selection to simultaneous improvement of several traits, following an ideotype concept. Therefore, information on the phenotypic and genetic association among these traits, and the influen...

Les efforts d'amélioration génétique du bananier et du bananier-plantain ont graduellement passé de la sélection de caractères individuels à celle simultanée de plusieurs caractères, suivant un concept d'idéotype. Ainsi, il devenu est important pour le sélectionneur Musa de connaître le degré d'a...
