India is amongst the largest banana (Musa acuminata) producing countries and thus banana pseudo stem is commonly available agricultural waste to be used as lignocellulosic substrate. Present study focuses on exploitation of banana pseudo stem as a source for bioethanol production...

Apiotrichum curvatum ATCC 20509 (formerly Candida curvata D), a lipid-accumulating yeast, was grown in banana juice. The optimum conditions for biomass production in shake flasks were 30°C growth temperature, efficient aeration, a juice concentration of 25%, and preliminary heat ...

Banana is the fruit of greatest production and all over the world commercialization, nevertheless, the loss indices are high, reaching 40% in Brazil, the second greatest worldwide producer. One of the procedures to avoid losses is the use of the fruit in the composition of a numb...

The banana stem, grain stalk that supports the banana fruits, is normally discarded after the fruit harvesting, either in the packing house or in the delivering centers, where it is considered a residue due to the great volume generated. For this reason and for being a fibrous ma...

This study aimed to evaluate the conditions of fermentation and distillation in banana spirit production, aiming at the adequacy of secondary compounds in relation to legislation. The four yeast strains`s fermentative potential was evaluated in banana juice. It also evaluated the...

Fruit growing is as adequate activity for family agriculture due to the need of intense and qualified labor, besides valorized production. Among the most cultivated fruits for its economic importance, traded and consumed quantity, nutritional value and processing potential, the b...

We investigated the characteristics of ethylene biosynthesis associated with ripening in banana (Musa sp. [AAA group, Cavendish subgroup] cv Grand Nain) fruit. MA-ACS1 encoding 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) synthase in banana fruit was the gene related to the ripeni...

ABSTRACT. The aim of this research was evaluate the productive performance, egg quality and the endoparasites presence on Carijó laying hens in Cage Free system, fed with two experimental diets, one of them supplemented with fresh banana leaf in natura. It were used 196 laying he...

The banana is one of the most important fruit in the human diet being and, important source of income for small producers, mostly responsible for its production. The exploreds cultivars present diseases problems that hinder its steady production to long it time. With intention to...

ABSTRACT: The use of new feed resources, particularly local agroindustrial byproducts, such as banana, may be an option for replacing those traditionally used for sheep feed to reduce production costs. Thus, the aim of this study was to evaluate the dietary effects of replacing c...

Concern about the depletion of traditional fossil fuels and the resulting greenhouse effect caused by the use of these have become increasingly larger, which makes it necessary to search for alternative sources of clean energy generation. This study aims to determine the producti...

Resumo Existem diversas cultivares de banana resistentes à Sigatoka-negra e Fusariose da bananeira; porém, pela falta de informações referentes às características de pós-colheita, muitas são rejeitadas no mercado. A adubação nitrogenada e potássica poderia auxiliar na melhoria d...

The objective of this work was to evaluate the spatial variability of banana production, in function of physical and chemical variables of soil and of farm physiographic characteristics, in order to select those with the greatest potential for use in site-specific management prog...

In tropical regions, intensive banana (Musa accuminata) monocropping has severe agronomic and environmental impacts, and the sustainability of this production is actually highly compromised. Yield reductions are principally due to the decrease of soil fertility and root systems d...

During banana (Musa acuminata L.) fruit ripening ethylene production triggers a developmental cascade that is accompanied by a massive conversion of starch to sugars, an associated burst of respiratory activity, and an increase in protein synthesis. Differential screening of cDNA...

Filamentous fungi are considered to be the most important group of microorganisms for the production of plant cell wall degrading enzymes (CWDE), in solid state fermentations. In this study, two fungal strains Aspergillus niger MS23 and Aspergillus terreus MS105 were screened for...
