Abstract

Seventeen unique bands were identified for phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (PGD) classified into PGD I, II, and III. Based on PGD banding pattern, four accession namely Ampyang, Dumanise 1, Katis and Malacacina, were identified to be of BBB genome, while four other accessions, Dumanise 1, Latundan Puti, Like Abuhon and Saksik, were determined to be of Musa acuminata x Musa balbidiana origin. Forty three bands were identified for malate dehydrogenase (MDH) classified into MDH I to V, No specific banding patter was identified to deermine the genomic constitution of the unknown accessions.
