Banana-weevil populations and associated damage were studied in adjacent plantations of highland cooking-bananas (cultivar Kibuzi) and introduced beer-bananas (cv. Kisubi) on a farm in central Uganda. Weevil density and mobility were assessed using mark and rerapture techniques. Residual banana c...
Plantains and bananas (Musa spp. L.) are inter- or intraspecific triploid hybrids derived from crosses between M. acuminata Colla. (A genome) and M. balbisiana Colla. (B genome). Cultivars have been assigned to different taxonomic groups (AA, BB, AAA, AAB, ABB, etc.) based on morphological qualit...

Market-preferred banana varieties - Runyankole.
Plantain and banana (Musa spp. L.) polyploid hybrids have been obtained after interspecific hybridisation and ploidy manipulations (i.e., interploidy crosses). The identification of promising hybrids for cultivar release requires their field testing to assess agronomic performance. The potential ...
