Vuylsteke, D.R.Ortiz, R.Ferris, S.Swennen, R.[PITA9': a blacksigatokaresistant hybrid from the false Horn plantain gene pool]PITA9': a blacksigatokaresistant hybrid from the false Horn plantain gene pool

Variety improvement of plantain and banana (Musa spp.) is based on genetic diversity, which provides the basis for selection gain. This paper reviews result obtained by the Plantain and Banana Improvement Programme (PBIP) of the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture in the development o...

Blomme, GuySwennen, R.Tenkouano, A.Ortiz, R.Vuylsteke, D.R.[Estimation of root development from shoot traits in plantain and banana (Musa spp.)]Estimation of root development from shoot traits in plantain and banana (Musa spp.)

Morphological traits are commonly used for characterizing plant genetic resources. Germplasm characterization should be based on distinctly identifiable, stable and heritable traits that are expressed consistently and are easy to distinguish by the human eye. Characterization and documentation of...


Batte, M.Mukiibi, A.Swennen, R.L.Uwimana, B.Pocasangre, L.Hovmalm, H.P.Geleta, M.Ortiz, R.[Suitability of existing Musa morphological descriptors to characterize East African highland ‘matooke’ bananas]Suitability of existing Musa morphological descriptors to characterize East African highland ‘matooke’ bananas

Plantain and banana (Musa s pp.J are giant perennial herbs which originated in Southeast Asia. Musa is an important food crop in the humid forest and mid-altitude ecologies of sub-Saharan Africa. Several criteria are used to distinguish the different types of cultivated plantain and banana, evolv...


Swennen, R.Ortiz, R.[Morphology and growth of plantain and banana: IITA research guide, No. 66]Morphology and growth of plantain and banana: IITA research guide, No. 66
Autor: Ortiz, R.

There is a genuine need within a plantain and banana (Musa spp.) breeding program to assess thoroughly the experimental materials through a sequence of trials. This will result in the selection of promising clones as potential new cultivars in the targeted agroecozone. Stability analyses and the ...


Ortiz, R.[AMMI and stability analyses of bunch mass in multilocational testing of Musa germplasm in sub-Saharan Africa]AMMI and stability analyses of bunch mass in multilocational testing of Musa germplasm in sub-Saharan Africa

Plantain and banana (Musa spp.) are important staple food crops in the humid forest and mid-altitude agro-ecologies of sub-Saharan Africa. Black Sigatoka, caused by Mycosphaerella fijiensis, is an airborne fungal disease which attacks the leaves of the Musa plant. It is commonly considered the ma...


Craenen, K.Ortiz, R.[Influence of black sigatoka disease on the growth and yield of diploid and tetraploid hybrid plantains]Influence of black sigatoka disease on the growth and yield of diploid and tetraploid hybrid plantains

Plantain hybrids and landraces, and banana cultivars (Musa spp. L.) were evaluated for three years in the plant and ratoon crops at three locations in the humid lowland forest (Mbalmayo and Onne) and derived savanna (Ibadan) agro-ecozones of sub-Saharan Africa. Additive main effects and multiplic...
