“…Though the number of hands and fingers per bunch was medium in NRCB 8, Kovvur Bontha, Bhoodibale, Popoulu and Monthan, bunch yield was found to be higher because of relatively higher finger size and weight. The results obtained in the present study with respect to variation in yield and yield attributes are in similar lines with the findings of Rajmanickam and Rajmohan (2010) [20] , Tushemereirwe et al (2014) [29] , Kumar et al (2014) [12] , Reynoso et al (2014) [22] , Martinez et al (2015) [15] , Ssali et al (2016) [26] , Tumuhimbise et al (2016) [28] , Nayak et al (2020) [16] , Joseph and Simi (2020) [10] , Jena et al (2020) [9] , Eshbel et al (2022) [4] in similar and other banana genotypes.…”

Most research efforts in India have focused on table bananas belonging to the AAA genetic group and not much research has been done on the ABB and AAB genotypes with respect to postharvest quality parameters in India. In this background, the performance of sixteen banana genotypes belonging to ABB genomic group and two genotypes belonging to AAB genomic group were evaluated for bunch traits and postharvest quality attributes. The experiment was laid out in a complete randomized block design with three replications. The genotypes displayed significant variations in bunch yield and postharvest quality attributes. The bunch weight varied from 12.00 kg/plant in Nendran to 28.50 kg/ plant in NRCB-8. The genotype Popoulu recorded higher finger weight (417.00 g). With respect to postharvest attributes, the pulp weight of the fruit ranged from 54.33 to 292.33 g in Karibale and Popoulu respectively. Popoulu and Dakshin Sagar recorded maximum and minimum pulp to peel ratios respectively. The peel thickness Ranged from 1.65 to 3.27 mm. Fruit firmness was higher in Monthan (21.09 kg/cm 2 ) at harvest while Nendran registered better firmness at ripened stage. Shelf-life of ripened fruits ranged between 3.44 to 6.00 days and Nendran recorded the longest shelf-life. Significantly the highest TSS content of 27.33 0 Brix was recorded in Karpooravalli. Total sugars and titratable acidity varied from 13.87 to 24.37 and 0.30 to 0.97 percent respectively. Sugar acid ratio ranged from 16.64 to 74.96 with a coefficient of variation of 49.08 percent. The reducing and non-reducing sugar content differed significantly and ranged from 12.06 to 22.18 and 1.34 to 2.51 percent respectively. Significant variation witnessed among the genotypes indicated a huge potential for selection among the genotypes for breeding programs.

“…In the present study (Table 4), almost all Swain [10] also recorded more than 100% GAM for pulp to peel ratio and non-reducing sugar. High value of GAM and high heritability estimates for a particular character is a reliable measure to be considered for selection of any genotype for crop improvement [11].…”

An experiment was conducted in the Department of Horticulture, Assam Agricultural University, Jorhat to evaluate the huge diversity among the different banana germplasm in the state of Assam. The experiment comprised of 24 banana (Musa spp.) genotypes, of which the fruits were collected for precise biochemical characterization of the variations present in the collection. This analysis had created a database of the biochemical characterization of the fruits of different indigenous banana genotypes of Assam from which, it can be concluded that, there exists great genotype diversity among the Musa germplasm of Assam considering the fruit biochemical aspects and considerable amount of genetic variations are present even among the closely related genotypes within the same genomic group.
