Pro‐Vitamin A Biofortified Cavendish Banana: Trait Stability in the Field [PDF]

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vitamin A deficiency (VAD), a major global health concern, has driven efforts to develop staple crops with enhanced pro‐vitamin A (pVA) content. Delivering meaningful nutritional benefits, however, requires technologies that maintain elevated carotenoid levels under field conditions. Previous proof‐of‐concept work demonstrated that pVA content

Properties of Banana (Cavendish spp.) Starch Film Incorporated with Banana Peel Extract and Its Application [PDF]

Molecules, 2021
The objective of this study was to develop an active banana starch film (BSF) incorporated with banana peel extract. We compared the film’s properties with commercial wrap film (polyvinyl chloride; PVC). Moreover, a comparison of the quality of minced pork wrapped during refrigerated storage (7 days at ±4 °C) was also performed.

Occurrence and spread of the banana fungus Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense TR4 in Mozambique

South African Journal of Science, 2020
Fusarium wilt, caused by the soil-borne fungus Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense (Foc), poses a major threat to banana production globally. A variant of Foc that originated in Southeast Asia, called tropical race 4 (TR4), was detected on a Cavendish ...

Banana breeding by genome design. [PDF]

J Integr Plant Biol
Bananas and plantains likely originated from hybridizations of four wild Musa species. This review highlights advances in banana genomics, genetics, and breeding, emphasizing genome sequencing breakthroughs and genomic‐assisted tools like selection and gene editing, and explores future prospects for improving key agronomic traits.

Accessory Chromosome Contributes to Virulence of Banana Infecting Fusarium oxysporum Tropical Race 4. [PDF]

Mol Plant Pathol
The independent accessory chromosome 12 (AC12) is dispensable for vegetative growth but contributes significantly to the virulence of banana‐infecting Fusarium oxysporum Tropical Race 4. ABSTRACT Filamentous fungi have evolved compartmentalised genomes comprising conserved core regions and dynamic accessory regions, which are thought to drive ...
