The efficiency of natural and artificial pollinators in plantain (Musa spp. AAB group) hybridisation and seed production

Plantain-derived tetraploid hybrids are routinely crossed In Musa breeding programmes with diploid Musa accessions for the efficient generation of putative triploid hybrid seed. However, natural open pollination of these same tetraploid hybrids also consistently generates viable seed. The mean germi...
