“…Maiores valores para o número de frutos foram observados para o triploide Caipira (171) e para a cultivar BRS Princesa (163), classificados no primeiro grupo. A média do número de frutos observados neste trabalho foi superior aos obtidos por Mattos et al (2010), que em seu primeiro ciclo de produção exibiu 83 frutos. Supõe-se que essa diferença esteja relacionada à instabilidade do primeiro ciclo e ao uso dos diferentes genótipos avaliados.…”

“…Mattos et al (2010) encontraram valores inferiores em seu trabalho para di-e tetraploides, entretanto os triploides Nam, Caipira e Pacha Nadan registraram o mesmo teor de sólidos solúveis (25,70°Brix), assemelhando-se com os resultados encontrados no presente estudo. Matsuura et al (2002) ao avaliarem os híbridos da cultivar Pacovan (PV03-76 e PV03-44), também encontraram um teor de sólidos solúveis similares de 22,2 a 28,3%, respectivamente.…”

Objetivou-se com este trabalho avaliar o desempenho agronômico de genótipos tri- e tetraploides de bananeira, em dois ciclos de produção, visando a selecionar os mais promissores para recomendação de cultivo na região do Recôncavo da Bahia. O delineamento utilizado foi o de blocos casualizados, com 11 genótipos distribuídos em 3 blocos, com quatro plantas úteis por parcela, conduzidos em espaçamento de 3 m x 2 m. Analisaram-se os seguintes caracteres agronômicos: altura da planta (m); diâmetro do pseudocaule (cm); número de folhas vivas na floração; número de folhas vivas na colheita; comprimento do engaço (cm); diâmetro do engaço (cm); peso do cacho (kg); peso das pencas (kg); peso individual da penca (g); número de pencas; número de frutos por cacho; espessura da casca (mm); comprimento do pedicelo (cm); diâmetro do pedicelo (mm); suscetibilidade ao despencamento (Lb); firmeza da polpa com casca; peso do fruto (g); comprimento do fruto(cm); diâmetro do fruto (mm); índice de alongamento; peso da polpa (g); rendimento polpa/casca; rendimento da polpa (%); diâmetro da polpa (mm); espessura da casca (mm); firmeza da polpa (Lb); acidez titulável (%); sólidos solúveis (ºBrix); ratio (SS/AT) e pH. Das trinta variáveis mensuradas, doze foram significativas para a fonte de variação 'ciclos'. Em relação à interação 'genótipos x ciclos', é possível afirmar que não houve comportamento diferenciado dos genótipos do primeiro para o segundo ciclos de produção, excluindo-se a 'altura de planta', o 'número de folhas vivas na floração', o 'diâmetro do fruto' e a 'espessura da casca'. Em relação ao efeito dos 'genótipos', os resultados mostraram-se significativos para todas as características, exceto para suscetibilidade ao despencamento. Considerando os dados agronômicos, os genótipos da série YB e as cultivares BRS Princesa e BRS Garantida mostram-se promissoras para o cultivo na região do Recôncavo da Bahia, pois apresentaram bom desempenho agronômico.

“…However, morphological identification is still widely used to determine the variety of the cultivated banana although there are some difficulties associated with the used of whole-plant or floral morphology especially dealing with somaclonal variation and identifying clones (Brown et al 2009). Agricultural bodies around the world especially in the banana producing countries do keep a live specimen and in vitro culture of banana plant varieties in case where genomic identification is required and for further improvement of banana cultivation and research (Mattos et al 2010;Panis 2009). …”

Banana by-products: an under-utilized renewable food biomass with great potential

et al. 2012

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Banana (Musaceae) is one of the world's most important fruit crops that is widely cultivated in tropical countries for its valuable applications in food industry. Its enormous by-products are an excellent source of highly valuable raw materials for other industries by recycling agricultural waste. This prevents an ultimate loss of huge amount of untapped biomass and environmental issues. This review discusses extensively the breakthrough in the utilization of banana by-products such as peels, leaves, pseudostem, stalk and inflorescence in various food and non-food applications serving as thickening agent, coloring and flavor, alternative source for macro and micronutrients, nutraceuticals, livestock feed, natural fibers, and sources of natural bioactive compounds and bio-fertilizers. Future prospects and challenges are the important key factors discussed in association to the sustainability and feasibility of utilizing these by-products. It is important that all available by-products be turned into highly commercial outputs in order to sustain this renewable resource and provide additional income to small scale farming industries without compromising its quality and safety in competing with other commercial products.

“…Similar studies done using 26 accessions of banana revealed significant difference in the fruit length, where a range of 6.87-18.67cm was recorded. The cultivars having maximum fruit length had higher levels of ploidy which is believed to be impacted by an increase in the size of cell nuclei which subsequently results in increased size of the plant tissues (19,20). The present study revealed that diploids Pisang Lilin (AA) and Njalipoovan (AB) were small fruited, while the triploids Nendran (AAB) and Grand Naine (AAA) had the maximum fruit size.…”

Morphological and horticultural characteristics of some commercial banana (Musa spp.) cultivars of Kerala

et al. 2022

Morphological and horticultural characteristics of six cultivars of banana fruits (Musa spp.) that are commercially grown in Kerala, belonging to different genomic groups viz. Nendran (AAB), Pisang Lilin (AA), Karpooravalli (ABB), Njalipoovan (AB), Grand Naine (ABB) and Yangambi (KM-5) (AAA) were evaluated. The morphological traits were characterized using Banana Descriptors established by IPGRI (1996), from which 9 characters were selected for quantitative analysis. Horticultural characters on variables such as number of fruits per bunch, fruit length (cm), fruit pedicel length (mm), fruit pedicel width (mm), peel thickness (mm), pulp weight (g), fruit to peel ratio, fruit flesh firmness (cm2kg-1) were analysed and subjected to one way ANOVA to determine the significance (p=.05). The cultivar Nendran (AAB) exhibited large morphological and horticultural traits, particularly for the fruit length (22.07cm), pulp weight (89.20g) and peel weight (49.30g). The cultivar Karpooravalli (ABB) was smaller in terms of the fruit length (10.67 cm) and peel weight (9.65g), but had a large (4.81) fruit: pulp ratio compared to other cultivars studied. The present work reveals substantial morphological and horticultural variation among banana cultivars of different genomic groups, with an overlap of similarities and differences even in banana cultivars having the same genomic group.
