Re: Scientific names
Scientific names and latin names are two different things. Scientific naming is commonly based on latin names.
While the convention:
Musa 'cultivar name' (ploidy level)
may be acceptable, and I prefer it myself, it is not based completely on latin names.
while ploidy level is specified, certainly it doesn't tell us what the parent cultivars are.
Just a cultivar name for me would suffice, but how do we technically name these scientifically when we have composition of several species chromosomes lumped up into each cell?
