Phylogenetic position of the disjunct species Musa ornata (Musaceae): first approach to understand its distribution

2017-12-01

Abstract excerpt

Musa L. commonly known as the banana group is one of the most important and oldest food crops of humankind. Among the wild relatives with ornamental interest in the genus, Musa ornata Roxb. shows a disjunct distribution between Asia and North America (Mexico). The wild occurrence of this species in Mexico has led to speculation about the evolutionary relationships with its Asian relatives. This study examined the...
