Diversity of functional edaphic macrofauna in Musa acuminata x Musa balbisiana (AAB) agroecosystems
Background This study focused on evaluating the diversity and richness of the edaphic macrofauna in eight banana farms in the western zone of Nicaragua. Methods The sampling design was random and descriptive, it was divided into two phases, the first was the collection of the sample, and the second was the classification, coding ...

Root distribution according to phenology in plantain cultivars (Musa AAB), Ecuador [PDF]
Abstract Plantain is the fourth most important crop in the world, considered as a basic and export product in Ecuador. The root distribution of three plantain cultivars (Musa AAB) grown in Ecuador was evaluated at the “Río Suma” Experimental Farm, “Laica Eloy Alfaro de Manabí” University, 0º15’ S, 79º26’ W.

Antibacterial and Antifungal Activities of <i>Musa balbisiana</i> Parts. [PDF]
The antibacterial and antimould activities of Musa balbisiana parts were concentration‐dependent. Seed sample indicated the highest ability to have both studied bioactive properties among the six selected parts. M. balbisiana parts pose potential antibacterial via two antibacterial activity assays of (MIC and MBC) on four investigated bacteria ...

Sterilization procedure was standardized for three popular banana cultivars viz., Musa (AAA group) ‘Amritsagar’; Musa (AAB group) ‘Malbhog’; and Musa (AAB group) ‘Chenichampa’. Two sterilants, sodium hypochlorite (0.5 % and 1.0 %) and mercuric chloride (0.1 %) were used both singly and in combination for surface sterilization of explants under ...

A theoretical model for the prevention of Banana Moko (Musa AAB Simmonds) [PDF]
A population simulation model with non-linear ordinary differential equations is presented, which interprets the dynamics of the banana Moko, with prevention of the disease and population of susceptible and infected plants over time. A crop with a variable population of plants and a logistic growth of replanting is assumed, taking into account the ...

Caracterização do grânulo de amido de bananas (Musa AAA-Nanicão e Musa AAB-Terra) [PDF]
Banana starch has been studied in the area of Nutrition ever since the concept of RS was introduced. The starches of Musa Type AAA-Nanicao and Musa Type AAB-Terra were characterized according to their physiological responses [12]. As a continuation, this study presents other physical and morphological features of starch granules from both species of ...

Micropropagation by tissue culture triggers differential expression of infectious endogenous Banana streak virus sequences (eBSV) present in the B genome of natural and synthetic interspecific banana plantains [PDF]
The genome of Musa balbisiana spp. contains several infectious endogenous sequences of Banana streak virus (eBSV). We have shown previously that in vitro micropropagation triggers the activation of infectious eBSOLV (endogenous sequences of Banana streak
