How did bananas evolve? 🌍 New research on wild Musa species reveals hybridization, speciation, & the role of Southeast Asia’s climate in shaping banana diversity. 🍌 #BananaGenetics #Biodiversity #Science www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Unravelling genomic drivers of speciation in Musa through genome assemblies of wild banana ancestors - Nature Communications
Hybridizations between different wild species and subspecies within Musa genus lead to the origin of current banana cultivars with different ploidy level and constitution. Here, the authors assemble s...
