Not sure about the differences, but the Letters show what ancestry the plant has if I am not mistaken. You can get info about the genetic background, and maybe different traits, and what proportion of them? By looking at these letters. For example more A's = sweeter, more B's = starchier, due to different proportions of ancestor genomes. Can anyone confirm what I just wrote?. INFO Genetic Names - Bananas Wiki
