Differentiating banana phytoliths: wild and edible Musa acuminata and Musa balbisiana

Journal of Archaeological Science, 2006
Recent reports indicate that phytoliths may provide direct archaeological evidence of banana cultivation. However, archaeologists may, in many places, recover phytoliths generated by banana plants with quite different historical backgrounds. Hence the need for a differentiation among phytoliths produced by specific banana groups.

A phenalenone-type phytoalexin from Musa acuminata

Phytochemistry, 1994
Abstract The unripe green fruit of banana [ Musa acuminata (AAA) cv Giant Cavendish] shows resistance to infection of Colletotrichum musae . Four antifungal compounds were detected in the extracts of the green fruits inoculated with conidia of the fungus.

Molecular characterization of banana streak acuminata Vietnam virus isolated from Musa acuminata siamea (banana cultivar) [PDF]

Archives of Virology, 2007
An isolate of banana streak virus (BSV) that does not also occur as an integrant in the Musa balbisiana genome was sought in order to investigate the biological role of BSV in the evolution of either the Musa genome or of the virus itself. We isolated BSV virions from a Musa acuminata siamea accession from Vietnam and sequenced the entire viral genome.

Purification and characterization of polygalacturonase from ripened fruits of Musa acuminata cultivar from Kerala (Musa acuminata cv. Palayankodan)

Journal of Food Measurement and Characterization, 2015
Bananas are the fruit crop with strong economic and nutritional relevance. This fruits have a very short shelf life due to the softening of the pulp during ripening. Fruit softening is an important aspect of ripening process in fleshy fruits and is caused by the cumulative action of a group of cell wall modifying enzymes.

Mycorrhizal dependency of banana (Musa acuminata, AAA group) cultivar

Plant and Soil, 1995
Seven banana cultivars (Musa acuminata, AAA group) were inoculated with two species of vesicular arbuscular mycorrhizal (VAM) fungi (Glomus mosseae and Glomus macrocarpum) in a greenhouse experiment. Inoculated plants had generally greater shoot dry weight and shoot phosphorus concentrations compared to the noninoculated plants.

Microsatellite mapping in Musa acuminata

1995
One of the ten most important fruit crop in the world are dessert and cooking bananas. Dessert banans are intensively cultivated for export to Europe and North America, while cooking banans and some dessert bananas are cultivated most often in backyard gardens for local consumption in tropical countries.

Synthesis of musafluorone: a naphthoxanthenone isolated from Musa acuminata

Tetrahedron Letters, 2010
5-Methoxy-3H-naphtho[2,1,8-mna]xanthen-3-one (musafluorone, 1), the only naphthoxanthenone reported so far from Musaceae, was synthesized starting from 2-naphthol in nine steps and resulted in an overall yield of 3%. Grignard addition of phenylmagnesium bromide to 4-methoxyperinaphthenone afforded the corresponding 4-methoxy-9-phenylphenalenone which ...
