Abstract
Three field experiments to assess the performance of four mutants of
Cavendish banana (Giant governor, Robusta, Peddapacha arati and Monsmari)
revealed that the cultivar 'Monsmari' was more productive than other cultivars
tried, the next best being Giant Governor. The ripe fruits of Monsmari had high
sugar content and lesser acidity compared to other varieties.
