METHODOLOGICAL CONSIDERATIONS ON BANANA (MUSA SPP.) YIELD DETERMINATIONS
Acta Horticulturae, 2010 Farmers, researchers, extension officers and policy makers need reliable yield data on banana (Musa spp.) to make informed decisions. There are no standard yield determination methods available for Musa research. Production patterns and types vary distinctly in time and space. This requires special attention when expressing yields as unit mass per unit

New microsatellite markers for bananas (Musa spp).
Genetics and molecular research : GMR, 2012 Thirty-four microsatellite markers (SSRs) were identified in EST and BAC clones from Musa acuminata burmannicoides var. Calcutta 4 and validated in 22 Musa genotypes from the Banana Germplasm Bank of Embrapa-CNPMF, which includes wild and improved diploids. The number of alleles per locus ranged from 2 to 14.

How genomics fuel breeding: unraveling the structure of infectious eBSV lead to the end of the BSV constraint for breeding banana interspecific hybrids [PDF]
, 2014 Infections of banana and plantain by banana streak viruses (BSV) can occur in the absence of vector-mediated transmission, through the activation of infectious endogenous BSV sequences (eBSVs).
