This book provides important information resulting from a lifetime dedicated to banana research. Ken Shepherd has not only devoted his life to studying bananas, but has focused on an area much neglected by other researchers, Musa cytology. The publishing of this book is especially timely given th...
The triploid genome of plantain (Musa spp., AA group) has been considered intractable to genetic improvement because of the production of putatively homogeneous 2n (= 3.r) gametes. Plantain breeding schemes have been based on the hybridization of 2n megaspores from the triploid plantain and haplo...
Bunch orientation is an economically important trait in plantain ( Musa spp. AAB group) and banana ( Musa spp. AAA or ABB groups). Pendulous bunches are more symmetrical than subhorizontal, horizontal, or erect bunches and are, therefore, better adapted for transportation. Erect, horizontal, subh...
The proceedings of the first International Symposium on the socioeconomics of non-export banana production 'Bananas and food security' held in November 1998 in Douala, Cameroon, include 61 contributions from all over the world and cover the following topics: Importance of bananas economically and...
Proceedings of a workshop to develop a coherent regional and international response for containing the spread of banana Xanthomonas wilt in East and Central Africa and mitigating its impact on rural livelihoods.
The objective of the symposium was to present the state of the art knowledge on the functioning of the Musa root system and its interrelationships with micro-organisms and pests, and to propose ways to improve root health. The papers present work done on cells as well as whole plants, and short-t...
This document was prepared for a workshop held in Kampala, Uganda, in August 2003. The objective of the workshop was to review the state-of-the-art of molecular and transformation technologies available for bananas as well as identify the strategies most likely to find field applications and make...
This catalogue provides information on the morphological and yield characteristics of 19 introduced and 8 local banana cultivars grown at the IPB-UPLB demonstration plot. It is intended to serve as a guide to help in identifying and selecting cultivars for further evaluation by researchers and pl...
