Genetic and cropping cycle effects on proximate composition and antinutrient contents of flour made from eleven Musa genotypes
KP Baiyeri, A Tenkouano
Abstract
Eleven Musa genotypes comprising ten hybrids and one local check were grown for two cropping cycles (plant crop and ratoon crop) in a sub-humid location of southeastern Nigeria. Flour was processed from unripe fruits harvested thereof. Proximate qualities and antinutrient factors were determined for each genotype during the two cropping cycles. Variance components analysis revealed significant (P
