Routine post-harvest screening of banana/plantain hybrids: Criteria and methods
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/104447
Abstract
This manual describes the key post-harvest criteria and methods/procedures for routine selection of new Musa hybrids. There are many post-harvest criteria for screening new banana, cooking banana and plantain hybrids, however the major ones include : post-harvest characteristics at harvest, fruit maturation, green-life and shelf-life, fruit ripening quality, sensory quality, cooking or boiling quality,…

European landraces: on-farm conservation, management and use
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/106154
Abstract
This technical bulletin first establishes the context of European landrace diversity conservation and use; it reviews how landrace inventories can be generated, using practical examples of such inventories for European countries; it then provides specific case studies of the on farm management of landraces; and exemplars of how landrace use has been and might be further promoted within a European agricultural context. The recent…

Screening of Musa germplasm for resistance and tolerance to nematodes
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/104444
Abstract
In most regions of the world, nematodes are recognized as important pests of bananas. Because banana nematodes attack the root and/or corm tissues, plant growth and yield are affected. The objective of these technical guidelines is to stimulate interest in nematode resistance and tolerance screening in bananas, and to provide a methodology for carrying out such screening: plant material, nematode inoculum, screening…

In situ conservation of wild plant species a critical global review of good practices
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/104559
Abstract
The aim of this book is to provide readers with a broad understanding of the concept and methodologies of in situ conservation for target plant species. The book is based upon a global survey, undertaken by the first author, of existing guidelines, methodologies, case studies and other relevant literature on the in situ conservation of plant species, as well as current activities in this area by national…

Molecular markers for genebank management
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/104976
Abstract
In the last decade, the use of DNA markers for the study of crop genetic diversity has become routine, and has revolutionized biology. Increasingly, techniques are being developed to more precisely, quickly and cheaply assess genetic variation. These techniques have changed the standard equipment of many labs, and most germplasm scientists are expected to be trained in DNA data generation and interpretation. The rapid growth of new techniques has…

Technical guidelines for the management of field and in vitro germplasm collections
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/105045
Abstract
Plant species that are vegetatively propagated, that have long life cycles and/or produce nonorthodox seeds are traditionally maintained in field collections. Maintaining plants in the field is costly and carries high risks of loss; therefore, the strategies and procedures employed to establish and maintain field collections need to be practical, rational and economic, in addition to being scientifically…

A protocol to determine seed storage behaviour
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/104973
Abstract
This publications provides an approach by which conservationists can determine whether or not long-term seed storage is feasible for a particular species, i.e. whether or not that species shows orthodox seed storage behaviour. It provides advice on the implementation of the protocol, examples of ways in which the results from seed storage studies could be misinterpreted due to confounding factors, as well as several alternative approaches for…
