A Functional Analysis of Inflorescence Architecture in Musa L. (Musaceae)
Food and Energy Security, Volume 13, Issue 5, September/October 2024.ABSTRACT Inflorescence architecture underpins sexual reproduction in wild Musa species and productivity in edible banana cultivars. In a functional analysis, we identified the apical inflorescence and lateral ‘cushion’ meristems and the change in flower type as the three primary components that generate inflorescence architecture. Five genotypes of two

COSMOS, a spatially explicit model to simulate the epidemiology of Cosmopolites sordidus in banana fields [PDF]
, 2008 In French West Indies, cyclones can cause severe damages to banana plants, and banana pests are thus confronted to a lack of resources. Here, we investigate with a spatial model the effect of a catastrophic disturbance, like a cyclone, on the demography ...
