“…Male fl owers were collected during anthesis and were used for manual cross-pollination, when pollen was distributed on the stigma surface. Pollen was collected during anthesis to ensure the normal development of the pollen tube and uniform growth, since pollen grains collected hours or days after anthesis tend to have reduced viability (TANGMITCHAROEN & OWENS, 1997). Depending on the quantity of pollen grains, one male fl ower was used to pollinate 3 to 4 female fl owers.…”

“…Although the production of seeds in most cultivated varieties is either not possible or difficult and rare, in specialised breeding work some varieties can be forced to produce seeds (Section VI) (Stover and Simmonds, 1987; Tomekpé et al, 2004;Ssebuliba et al, 2006b). For example, 0-183 and 0-219 seeds per bunch have resulted from pollinating triploid plantains (AAB) with the pollen from diploid bananas (AA) (respectively Tomekpé et al, 2000, and Vuylsteke, 1993).…”

“…However, its commercial application is limited (Pegg et al, 1993). The use of resistant cultivars is the best alternative for controlling FOC and conventional banana breeding for FOC resistance has been actively reported (Rowe and Rosales, 1993;Tomekpe et al, 2004;Sebuliba et al, 2006). Technically, it faces the problems of flower sterility and ploidy of commercial cultivars (Roux et al, 2004).…”

Isolation and characterization of resistance genes from local banana cultivars was important in order to support the development of FOC resistant banana cultivars. Resistance gene analogues (RGAs) were isolated and characterized form three fusarium resistant banana cultivars using degenerate primers based on NBS domains. From 91 fragments sequenced, 17 fragments were positively NBS-type sequences and encoded as MNBS1-MNBS17. Phylogenetic analysis of MNBS deduced amino classified into three groups; the first group consisted of 14 members (MNBS1-MNBS14) with 97.4% identity, and the other three groups consisted of one member (MNBS15, MNBS16 and MNBS17, respectively) with 28.5% identity. All MNBS sequences were categorized as non-TIR-NBS-LRR. Comparison and phylogenetic analysis of MNBS with other known RGA and R genes showed that deduced amino acid MNBSs shared 91.7-98.8% identity with Musa NBS-LRR and 19.9-35.5% identity with known R genes. Among them, MNBS17 shared 50.5% identity with RGC2 (ABY75802) that assosiated to FOC race 4 resistant Musa species.
