Assessment of RNAi-induced silencing in banana (Musa spp.) [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Research Notes, 2014
In plants, RNA- based gene silencing mediated by small RNAs functions at the transcriptional or post-transcriptional level to negatively regulate target genes, repetitive sequences, viral RNAs and/or transposon elements. Post-transcriptional gene silencing (PTGS) or the RNA interference (RNAi) approach has been achieved in a wide range of plant species

The Biology of Musa spp.

open access: yes, 2023
Introduction The plantain, often known as the banana, is a large herbaceous plant native to the South Pacific. The plant itself has a slightly confusing taxonomic classification. In general, "banana" refers to plants that produce a sweeter variety of fruit commonly consumed raw, such as the "desert bananas" which account for most of the fruits consumed

Environmental physiology of the bananas (Musa spp.) [PDF]

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Plant Physiology, 2007
The bananas are thought to be particularly sensitive to changes in the environment. This review considers some historical and recent investigations into the response of the leaf, root and reproductive system to the environment. Monteith's analysis of the response of plants to intercepted radiation is appropriate for analyzing the productivity of ...
