Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleControl of Anthracnose Caused by Colletotrichum musae on Curcuma alismatifolia Gagnep. Using Antagonistic Bacillus spp.Supuk Mahadtanapuk, Mondhon Sanguansermsri, Robert W. Cutler et al.Over 400 bacterial strains, isolated from leaf surfaces of Curcuma alismatifolia Gagnep. and hot springs in the Chiang Mai province of northern Thailand, were screened in vitro for antagonistic activity against Colletotrichum musae, an anthracnose fungus. Three isolates provided greater than 75% growth inhibition of the fungus in vitro and were identified as Bacillus licheniformis, B. amyloliquefaciens and B. subtilis. … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 9,005 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleControl of Phenolic Compound Secretion and Effect of Growth Regulators for Organ Formation from Musa spp. cv. Kanthali Floral Bud ExplantsSoubir Titov, Salil Kumar Bhowmik, Ajoy Mandal et al.The study was undertaken to examine banana cv. Kanthali floral bud apex as an alternative source material for in vitro propagation because huge number of explants die due to microbial contamination in case of shoot tip explants. Contamination free cultures were established by treating the floral bud explants with 0.1% HgCl2 for 6 min. This study found that inflorescence tissues … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 7,742 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleScalp Induction Rate Responses to Cytokinins on Proliferating Shoot-Tips of Banana Cultivars (Musa spp.)Siamak Shirani, Meon Sariah, Wahab Zakaria, Mahmood MaziahProblem statement: The effect of cytokinins on scalp induction from in vitro propagating shoot tips of different banana (Musa spp. AAA and AAB) cultivars was studied. Approach: Proliferation rate increased with an increasing concentration of Benzyl Amino Purine (BAP) up to 22.2 µM while, lower level of BAP (11.1 µM) increased scalp induction. Results: Kinetin induced a lower number of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 9,443 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePlantlet Production through Development of Competent Multiple Meristem Cultures from Male Inflorescence of Banana, Musa acuminta cv. 'Pisang Mas' (AA)S. Wirakarnain, A. B.M.S. Hossain, S. ChandranA protocol was developed for the establishment of competent multiple meristem cultures of banana, Musa acuminta cv. 'Pisang Mas' (AA) derived from male inflorescence. The white floral meristem appeared after 21 days in medium supplemented with 10 µM of N6-benzylaminopurine (BA) and 1 µM Indole -3-Acetic Acid (IAA). White floral meristem were optimized in medium supplemented with 100 µM (BA) … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,811 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAntibacterial and Antioxidant Activities of Banana (Musa, AAA cv. Cavendish) Fruits PeelMatook Saif Mokbel, Fumio HashinagaThe fresh green and yellow banana peel of, (Musa, cv. Cavendish) fruits were treated with 70% acetone, which were partitioned with chloroform (CHCl3) and ethyl acetate (EtOAc), sequentially. The antioxidant activities of the extracts were evaluated by using the thiocyanate method, β-carotene bleaching method and 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical elimination. While, antimicrobial activities of the extracts and isolated components were … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 16,037 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsIn Vitro Prevention of Browning in Plantain CultureInnocent Chimereze Onuoha, Chinonye Jemimah Eze, Chibuikem I.N. UnambaProblem statement: The in vitro propagation of plantain (Musa paradisiaca) is still faced with lots of challenges such as blackening or browning of tissues prior to culture due to the oxidation of phenolic compound by polyphenolic oxidase enzyme present in the tissue when excised. Approach: Understanding browning processes in plantain and possible ways of minimizing it during excision of explants … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 6 Jul 2011 · 15,229 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMolecular Characterization of Banana (AA) Diploids with Contrasting Levels of Black and Yellow Sigatoka ResistanceClaudia Fortes Ferreira, Sebastiao Oliveira Silva, Nivia Paula Damasceno Sobrinho et al.Most banana cultivars are susceptible to many diseases, whereas Sigatoka leads to greatest yield losses. One of the strategies to overcome this disease is thorough banana genetic breeding which consists in the obtainment of improved (AA) diploids which are then crossed with triploids obtaining (AAAB) tetraploid disease resistant bananas also presenting other important agronomic characteristics. The prior knowledge of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2004 · 7,652 accessesView PDFCite
