Hi,

Musa itinerans and Musa yunnanensis are highly polymorphic species and are very common in China.
In according to DNA analyses there are at least 20 ifferent variants of M.itinerans. DNA analyses with M.yunnanensis are under work.
What is coming M.yunnanensis charactreristics they are varying quite a lot depending on from which part of China they are origin to. These charactreristics of M.yunnanensis also includes the ones mentioned by Remko.
I have published a while ago descriptions of many M.yunnanensis varieties in China but I don,t have those papers with me here in Guangzhou now.

Scientifically the classification of so many varieties are coming very difficult. One has to jump into forms insteadt of variety.

Markku.
