Influence of contrasting cultivation altitudes on the physicochemical, digestive, and functional properties of four Musa starches produced in Cameroon

Abstract: BACKGROUNDBananas and plantains are important food sources for many people in the world. Their high starch content places them among the highest energy providers. This study aimed to determine the effects of altitude on banana starch properties in Cameroon. A dessert banana, a cooking banana, a plantain cultivar, and a plantain‐like hybrid were grown at low and high altitudes (respectively at 80 m and 1300 m above sea level).RESULTSStarch analyses showed an increase in moisture and pH values against a drop in … Show more
