Effects of in vitro polyploidization on agronomic characteristics and fruit carotenoid content; implications for banana genetic improvement
Bananas (Musa spp.), native to South East Asia, have spread worldwide and are integrated into the diets of millions of people in tropical regions. Carotenoid content varies dramatically between different banana genotypes, providing an opportunity for vitamin A biofortification. Polyploidization is a...
