Classification of African plantain landraces and banana cultivars using a phenotypic distance index of quantitative descriptors

Proper classification and establishment of relationships between and within Musa taxonomic clusters will be important tools for the genetic improvement of plantain and banana. This paper assesses the value of a phenotypic diversity index, based on 16 quantitative descriptors, for germplasm clusterin...
