ISHS Acta Horticulturae 123: VI African Symposium on Horticultural Crops
STUDY OF SOME GROWTH PARAMETERS OF THE PLANTAIN BANANA TREE (MUSA CORNICULATA L, CV.CORNE 1, Group AAB) |
| Authors: | A.P. Anno, Cl. Lambert |
| Abstract:
As growth parameters were chosen the height and the circumference of the trunc, the functional leaf, i.e. the first fully developed leaf, the rythm of the growth and the surface foliage. All Musa cultivars appear to have this polymorphological foliage and the number of leafs differ during the growth from the young phase into the full-grown tree. The flowering starts as soon as the surface foliage has arrived at a favourable level. | |
