Secondary polyploids, heterosis and evolutionary crop breeding for further improvement of the plantain and banana (Musa spp. L) genome

Several primary tetraploids with desirable attributes have been selected by Musa breeding programs. Diploid parental stocks have become available for further genetic improvement of the Musa genome. Hence, new genome manipulations should be tested before they become routine in breeding programs. Thro...
