Default Diploid Banana Cross Pollination / Flower Bagging Methods

Hi,

For practical purposes I would like to know: how far will diploid bananas typically cross-pollinate?

Theoretically, would two flowering diploid bananas ~20-50 feet apart result in crossed seed, or will the harvested seeds grow true to type?

Is the isolation distance that is required variable, depending on the diploid banana variety? Or is there a recommended isolation distance or bagging method used to produce true-to-type seed, in an environment with multiple diploid varieties?

Thank you for your insight!
