Ploidy and genome segregation in Musa breeding populations assessed by flow cytometry and randomly amplified polymorphic DNA markers

The majority of edible bananas (Musa L.) are triploid (2n = 3x = 33) cultivars known as dessert, plantain, or cooking bananas with predominant AAA, AAB, and ABB genomes, justifying the aim of breeding programs to develop improved hybrids of the different utilization classes in the triploid backgroun...
