Somatic Embryogenesis in Banana (Musa spp.)

2022
Bananas (Musa ssp.) are among the world's most important crops. In terms of gross value of production, they are the fourth most important global food crop and have an important socioeconomic and ecological role. Somatic embryogenesis (SE) is a developmental process, in which somatic cells differentiate into embryos which eventually develop and ...

Genome-Wide Analysis of Pathogenesis-Related Protein 1 (PR-1) Gene family from Musa spp. and its Role in Defense Response during Stresses.

Gene, 2022
Pathogenesis related protein-1 (PR-1) is the most abundantly produced protein during defense response against many biotic and abiotic stresses. However, knowledge on PR-1 gene family and its evolutionary relationship in banana is very limited.

In silico profiling, docking analysis, and protein interactions of secondary metabolites in Musa spp. Against the SGE1 protein of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense

Comput. Biol. Chem.
Banana Fusarium Wilt (BFW), caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense (Foc), threatens banana crops globally, with the pathogen's virulence partially regulated by the Sge1 transcription factor, which enhances disease severity.

Genetic Diversity in Banana (Musa spp.)

Madras Agricultural Journal, 2010
Twenty eight banana genotypes grown at the Instructional Farm, College of Agriculture, Vellayani, Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala were observed for twenty three different morphological characters and the data were subjected to analysis of variance. Significant differences were recorded among the genotypes with regard to different morphological characters ...

Modelling and simulation of banana (Musa spp.) waste pyrolysis for bio-oil production

Biofuels, 2019
Banana (Musa Spp.) is a widely cultivated fruit in tropical West Africa and it generates a lot of waste due to its single fruit production per lifecycle and relatively large plant size.

Structural, functional characterization and physicochemical properties of green banana flour from dessert and plantain bananas (Musa spp.)

LWT, 2019
Banana and plantain offer larger scope in the preparation of designer foods with enriched functional constituents. The study was targeted to investigate the functional and structural differences between different genome groups of banana and its influence

Diazotrophic bacteria associated with banana (Musa spp.).

Plant and Soil, 2003
Nitrogen-fixing bacteria were isolated from surface sterilized banana (Musa spp.) plants and constituted a minor proportion of banana endophytic bacteria. Some isolates were characterized by alloenzyme profiles, biochemical tests, 16S rRNA and rpoB partial gene sequences, plasmid profiles and plant colonization.

BANANA (MUSA SPP.) PRODUCTION CHARACTERISTICS AND PERFORMANCE IN UGANDA

Acta Horticulturae, 2010
The highland cooking banana (Musa spp., AAA-EA genome) is the most important crop in the East African Great Lakes region. In Uganda, production has expanded and productivity increased in the country’s southwest and declined in the Central region where the crop has traditional roots.
