Genetic diversity and relationships were assessed in 28 accessions of Musa acuminata (AA) Colla and Musa balbisiana (BB) Colla, and some of their natural hybrids, using the amplified fragment length poly-morphisms (AFLP) technique. Fifteen AFLP +3 primer pairs produced 527 polymorphic bands among...

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...

This study investigated the utility of inoculation of in vitro plantlets in tubes and detached leaves as reliable and rapid assays for screening Musa genotypes against Mycosphaerella fijiensis, the causal agent of black leaf streak. In the first part of the study, three types of inocula were eval...

The majority of edible bananas (Musa L.) are triploid (2n = 3x = 33) cultivars known as dessert, plantain, or cooking bananas with predominant AAA, AAB, and ABB genomes, justifying the aim of breeding programs to develop improved hybrids of the different utilization classes in the triploid backgr...

The present study aimed at determining the iron, zinc and β-carotene contents of the plantain-based foods commonly consumed in Southern Nigeria to assess the quantitative contribution of plantain consumption in meeting iron, zinc and vitamin A requirements of both children and their mothers. A su...

The relative contribution of ploidy status and genome composition to the variability of root traits in Musa was studied in 18 genotypes (from 5 genomic groups and 3 ploidy levels) at Onne, Nigeria. There was a significant effect of ploidy level on the different characteristics, except for root dr...

Post-harvest characteristics of 36 Musa genotypes were evaluated under two cropping systems. Genotypes included AAA x AA, AAB x AA and ABB x AA (or BB) and their landraces AAA, AAB and ABB grown under monocropping and in the alleys of natural multi-species hedgerows. Significant differences (P &l...

Micropropagated plants of 36 Musa genotypes with diverse genetic backgrounds, including 14 tetraploid plantain (TMPx) and banana (TMBx) hybrids, were evaluated for their response to banana streak badnavirus (BSV) infection under three environments from 1995 to 1997 in Nigeria. The characteristics...

The additive main effects and multiplicative interaction (AMMI) model was used to evaluate the stability patterns of 36 Musa genotypes in four cropping environments for bunch weight, pulp weight, and dry matter content. Alleycropping generally induced higher means for all traits than did sole cro...
