“…This cultivar is resistant to Panama disease (Fusarium oxysporum) and Yellow Sigatoka (YS), i.e., a leaf spot disease (Mycosphaerella musicola). The main disadvantage of BRS Platina is associated with its susceptibility to falling off, with reduced commercial value for the fresh market; however, this is not relevant for industrial processing (Nogueira et al, 2018), since it may be an indication of the use for flour processing, considering its high content of resistant starch (Leonel et al, 2021).…”

The constant need for innovation in the food industries to meet the demands of consumers and the growing market for gluten-free and high-protein products have driven studies of mixed flour. In this study, 'BRS Platina' banana fruits were processed to obtain Whole Green Banana Flour (WGBF) and Green Banana Pulp Flour (GBPF) as well as leaves of Ora-pro-nóbis Flour (OPNF). Mixed flours were prepared by blending banana flours (WGBF or GBPF) with increasing levels of OPNF (from 5 to 25%). Flours were analyzed for physicochemical characteristics, mineral contents, Water Absorption Index (WAI), Water Solubility Index (WSI), and color. The main component of banana flours was starch, in which GBPF has the highest content. The WGBF had a higher mineral content, and in both flours, the potassium was at a greater level. OPNF showed the highest protein and mineral contents. Independent of the type of banana flour, mixed flours were darker, and had higher WAI and considerable increases in Mg, Fe, and Zn than no mixed ones. The blend of banana flours and Ora-pro-nóbis leaf flour can be a viable combination for preparing a variety of food products, due to its nutritional and technological properties.

“…Among the best cultural practices in banana production, one must consider the plant height, since is an important trait for planting density tolerance and fruit harvesting, that is, direct factors that influence the cost of the fruits. Besides that, it is an important criterion for selecting the most appropriate cultivar according to specific regions with regards to the incidence of gusty winds (Nogueira, et al, 2018).…”

Bananas fruits are widely consumed in the world. In Brazil, the role of agriculture activities in the economy and society is huge, especially for banana farmers. The most popular variety of bananas in Brazil are Prata, Grand Naine, Williams and Nanicão; however, all of them have at least one undesirable trait such as height, yield, vegetative cycle, pests and diseases tolerances, drought or cold resistance and fruit quality. This literature review aims to evaluate agronomic performance and fruit quality of new genotypes of the Prata and Cavendish subgroups, and to make further recommendations on high quality genotypes to Brazilian banana producers. Therefore, a literature review of previously acquired data was conducted and the outcomes indicated genotypes’ adaptability to specific region that assessed vegetative and productive attributes of new cultivars, in comparison to most commercially exploited ones, which have already shown high vulnerability to pests and diseases. These outcomes will then facilitate banana producers the opportunity to select the most stable and adaptable genotypes according to environmental conditions.

“…Apesar da bananicultura comercial estar concentrada na faixa litorânea do estado, o Planalto Paulista vem aumentando significativamente o seu potencial produtivo (AGRIANUAL, 2019). Nogueira et al (2018) avaliaram dezenove genótipos de bananeiras em Rio Branco, Acre, cultivados sem irrigação suplementar. Foram analisadas características agronômicas durante três ciclos de produção, sendo que os genótipos Thap Maeo, FHIA 02, FHIA 18 e Maravilha foram os que mostraram melhores resultados, podendo ser incluídos nas recomendações para a bananicultura do estado do Acre.…”

The banana tree is a tropical fruit plant, grown commercially throughout Brazil. It’s commonly found of coastal regions, the bananahas been gaining space in the Paulista Plateau, mainly in the midwest region of the state. The objective of this work was to evaluate the performance of banana genotypes cultivated under microaspersion irrigation and rainfed in the edaphoclimatic conditions of Vera Cruz municipality in São Paulo state. The planting was carried out in December 2015, withmicropropagated and acclimated seedlings. The statistical design adopted was randomized blocks, with 6 treatments, in a 3 x 2 factorial arrangement with 3 genotypes and 2 cultivation environments (irrigated and non irrigated). The genotypes evaluated were: BRS Princesa (Maçã subgroup), Galil 18 (Prata subgroup) and Grande Naine (Cavendish subgroup). Vegetative variables (plant height, pseudostem circumference and the number of live leaves in flowering); production variables (clusters and weight mass, productivity, number of hands per bunches and number of fruit for hand) and fruit quality (diameter, shell thickness and length), were evaluated. It is concludedthat the localized irrigation by microaspersion positively interfered in the plant performance,improving the vegetative and productive characteristics ofthe BRS Princesa (Maçã subgroup), Galil 18 (Prata subgroup) and Grande Naine (Cavendish subgroup) genotypes, in Vera Cruz, midwest region of São Paulo state.
