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 fate of doubled genes, from allopolyploid or autopolyploid origin, is controlled at multiple levels, resulting in the modern day cultivars. We studied the root growth of 3 different triploid banana cultivars under control and osmotic stress conditions. The root growth of the allopolyploid ABB...

This protocol is designed to support farmers to improve the quality of their bananas in the field and the postharvest practices in a bid to facilitate access to better prices and niche markets. The protocol is organized into three sections: Section 1 Good Agricultural Practices (GAP); Section 2: ...

A banana streak virus disease survey was conducted in 25 districts in 3 of the 6 plantain growing regions of Ghana in 2001. A total of 40 farms were evaluated for the presence of the disease in each region. Triple antibody Sandwich-enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) technique was used in t...

The susceptibility and sensitivity to Radopholus similis and Helicotylenchus multicintus of 2-month-old plants derived from sword suckers (early screening) and of sword suckers of established 18-month-old mats belonging to 12 Musa genotype was investigated and compared. Differences in nematode po...

For a mixture of reasons certain tropical crops which are important as primary or secondary food staples are relatively underresearched. The modem tools of molecular and cellular biotechnology offer the opportunity not only to make substantial gains in our knowledge of these crops, but also to ov...
