This report documents the exploration of wild banana populations on the East coast of Papua New Guinea in June, 2017, with the aim of collecting wild specimens for population genetics studies. The collecting team visited two provinces on the East coast: in Madang province, they collected samples ...

Bananas of the Autonomous Region of Bougainville: a catalog of banana diversity seen on the islands of Bougainville and Buka, Papua New Guinea
Bananas (Musa spp.), including dessert and cooking types, are of major importance in the tropics. Due to extremely high levels of sterility, the diversity of cultivated bananas is fixed over long periods of time to the existing genotypes. This pattern puts banana-based agrosystems at risk. Theref...

A genomic view of the banana (Musa spp.) diversification: the case of triploid ABB genome group
Edible bananas result from interspecific hybridization between Musa acuminata and Musa balbisiana, as well as among subspecies in M. acuminata. Four particular M. acuminata subspecies have been proposed as the main contributors of edible bananas, all of which radiated in a short period of time in...

Report from the banana collecting mission to Samoa from July 22nd to August 2nd, 2019
Most banana cultivars are triploid seedless parthenocarpic clones derived from hybridization between Musa acuminata subspecies and sometimes M. balbisiana. M. acuminata subspecies were suggested to differ by a few large chromosomal rearrangements based on chromosome pairing configurations in inte...

Crop ontology in support of conservation and use of banana genetic resources
Bananas (Musa spp.) are one of the main fruit crops grown worldwide. With the annual production reaching 144 million tons, their production represents an important contribution to the economies of many countries in Asia, Africa, Latin-America and Pacific Islands. Most importantly, bananas are a s...
