The purpose of this paper is to physical-chemical characterize of male inflorescence of Prata-Anã and Grande Naine cultivars, and their respective flours. Three drying methods were used to prepare the flours: F1- drying in a forced-air oven at 40°C/30 hours; F2- at 60°C/24 hours and F3- conventional oven at 120°C/45 minutes. The banana tree male inflorescence has a high moisture content, significant amount of fiber and reduced caloric value, cv. Prata-Anã stood out in crude protein and crude fiber values. Grande Naine F2 and F3 flours was higher in antioxidant potential, the F3 flours was better in total phenolics. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The aim of this study was to determine morphological descriptors that could enable the characterization of banana cultivars from micropropagation process during the juvenile phase. Twelve cultivars from different genomic groups and with different ploidy levels were grown in vitro and acclimatized in greenhouse for three months. After this period, plants quantitative morphological and descriptive characteristics were evaluated. The results allowed ranking the cultivars and preparing an analytical key to identify these cultivars after the period of three months of acclimatization. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
