Hi Tony,
Yes, I know Prof. Ge very well. Actually the last expedition was done together with him. Also some previous mission too when Guandong, Hainan and Hunan provinces are concerned. They did not collect any Musa specimens either.
Yes, he has been in Tibet but he cannot remember the wild bananas from there except Musa aurantiaca.
I was working in Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden in 2006-2008 and with them we studied the whole Yunnan and partly Guangzhi provinces for wild bananas.
