The use of plant fibers as reinforcement in cement composites has gained significant interest due to their favorable mechanical properties and inherent sustainability, particularly when sourced from agro-industrial waste. In this study, six types pineapple leaf commercial hybrid varieties were characterized terms morphology, crystallinity index, water absorption, dimensional stability, evaluate potential cement-based composites. An anatomical analysis the leaves was conducted identify fiber...
Phytoene desaturase (PDS) is a plant enzyme involved in carotenoid biosynthesis. The PDS gene has been used as selective marker for genome editing several species, including banana (Musa spp.). Its knockout promotes dwarfism and albinism, characteristics that are easily recognizable highly favorable. In Musa spp., the A increases fruit production quality, whereas B associated with tolerance to biotic abiotic stresses. objective of this study was identify molecular discriminate genomes...
Fusarium wilt caused by
Yellow Sigatoka, caused by the fungus Pseudocercospora musae, represents one of most challenging diseases in bananas, which is aggravated due to genetic variability this pathogen. The main objective study was characterize infection process P. musae two banana cultivars with different levels resistance and quantify expression genes. Inoculated non-inoculated leaf samples cultivars, Yangambi km 5—resistant Grande Naine—susceptible, were investigated light microscopy, histochemistry, scanning...
Bananas are the main fruits responsible for feeding more than 500 million people in tropical and subtropical countries. Black Sigatoka, caused by fungus Pseudocercospora fijiensis, is one of most destructive disease crop. This mainly controlled with use fungicides; however, addition to being harmful human health, they associated a high cost. The development resistant cultivars through crosses susceptible commercial focuses banana breeding programs worldwide. Thus, objective present study was...
The objective of this work was to conduct a research on the banana consumption preference in city Cruz das Almas, Bahia. results showed that 94 people were female, 82 males and 10 did not report, totaling 186 respondents. Regarding consumption, 44.0% reported consuming fruit daily because its nutritional value (29.0%). attribute obtained 45.0%, being for cultivar Prata (51.0%). A percentage 46.0% observed natura consumption. largest purchase site free markets with 59.0%. With this, consumers...

Fusarium wilt is a soil borne fungal disease that has devastated banana production in plantations around the world. Most Cavendish-type bananas are susceptible to strains of oxysporum f. sp. cubense (Foc) belonging Subtropical Race 4 (STR4) and Tropical (TR4). The wild diploid Musa acuminata ssp. malaccensis (AA, 2n = 22) carries resistance Foc TR4. A previous study using segregating populations derived from M. identified quantitative trait locus (QTL) (12.9 cM) on distal part long arm...
