Ojiambo, P.S.Twizeyimana, M.Tenkouano, A.Bandyopadhyay, Ranajit[Rapid and mass screening of banana and plantain for resistance to Black sigatoka disease using detached leaf and in vitro plantlets]Rapid and mass screening of banana and plantain for resistance to Black sigatoka disease using detached leaf and in vitro plantlets

Eleven Musa genotypes comprising ten hybrids and one local check were grown for two cropping cycles (plant crop and ratoon crop) in a sub-humid location of southeastern Nigeria. Flour was processed from unripe fruits harvested thereof. Proximate qualities and antinutrient factors were determined ...


Baiyeri, K.P.Tenkouano, A.[Genetic and cropping cycle effects on proximate composition and antinutrient contents of flour made from eleven Musa genotypes]Genetic and cropping cycle effects on proximate composition and antinutrient contents of flour made from eleven Musa genotypes
Coyne, D.L.Tenkouano, A.[Evaluation of a method to simultaneously screen Musa germplasm against multiple nematode species]Evaluation of a method to simultaneously screen Musa germplasm against multiple nematode species

Multilocation evaluation trials (MET) constitute an important step in the evaluation of breeding lines, in order to assess their adaptation and stability patterns across environments, and to ensure optimal targeting of the lines. Seven Musa genotypes comprising five plantain hybrids, one cooking ...


Tenkouano, A.Baiyeri, K.P.[Adaptation pattern and yield stability of banana and plantain genotypes grown in contrasting agro-ecologies in Nigeria]Adaptation pattern and yield stability of banana and plantain genotypes grown in contrasting agro-ecologies in Nigeria

Reproductive growth in polyarchic Musa spp. varieties occurs by the simultaneous growth of several shoots, resulting in competitive inhibition of fruit development in the individual shoots, particularly under poor soil fertility conditions. Nine plantain genotypes were forced into single-culm gro...


Tenkouano, A.Vuylsteke, D.R.Swennen, R.[Sink competition and desuckering effects on field performance of triploid and tetraploid plantain genotypes]Sink competition and desuckering effects on field performance of triploid and tetraploid plantain genotypes

The harvest index (HI), which is the ratio of the economic yield to the aboveground plant biomass, is an important trait to assess progress in improving yield potential. Therefore, a study was carried out to examine the assimilate partitioning of nine Musa hybrids along with a local check for two...


Baiyeri, K.P.Tenkouano, A.[Variability in agricultural and biological yields of ten musa genotypes evaluated for two cropping cycles in a subhumid environment of Nigeria]Variability in agricultural and biological yields of ten musa genotypes evaluated for two cropping cycles in a subhumid environment of Nigeria

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...


Blomme, GuySwennen, R.Tenkouano, A.[Assessment of variability in the root system characteristics of banana (Musa spp.) according to genome group and ploidy level]Assessment of variability in the root system characteristics of banana (Musa spp.) according to genome group and ploidy level

Plantains and bananas (Musa spp. sect. eumusa) originated from intra- and interspecific hybridization between two wild diploid species, M. acuminata Colla. and M. balbisiana Colla., which contributed the A and B genomes, respectively. Polyploidy and hybridization have given rise to a number of di...


Pillay, M.Nwakanma, D.Tenkouano, A.[Identification of RAPD markers linked to A and B genome sequences in Musa L]Identification of RAPD markers linked to A and B genome sequences in Musa 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...


Dahal, G.Ortiz, R.Tenkouano, A.Hughes, J.Thottappilly, G.Vuylsteke, D.R.Lockhart, B.E.L.[Relationship between natural occurrence of banana streak badnavirus and symptom expression, relative concentration of viral antigen, and yield characteristics of some micropropagated Musa spp]Relationship between natural occurrence of banana streak badnavirus and symptom expression, relative concentration of viral antigen, and yield characteristics of some micropropagated Musa spp

Thirty-six Musa genotypes, comprising the three major genomic groups (AAA, AAB, ABB) and their hybrids, were evaluated in four environments in Nigeria. Multiple correlation and path coefficient analysis was performed on phenological and yield traits. Bunch weight was more associated with phenolog...
