Is the Banana Plant really going extinct forever? ⚠️ Discover why a deadly fungus (TR4) is wiping out the Cavendish banana and why science calls it a "Genetic Dead End".
The banana you eat today is a clone. Unlike wild bananas, the Cavendish banana plant is sterile and seedless. This lack of genetic diversity makes it a sitting duck for a soil-borne killer called Fusarium Wilt (Tropical Race 4).
In this 3-minute documentary, we explore the history of the extinct "Gros Michel" banana, the biology of triploid mutants, and why the banana plant might disappear from supermarkets within our lifetime.
In this video, we cover:
The Sterile Mutant: Why banana plants cannot reproduce naturally.
The Soil Assassin: How Fusarium (TR4) strangles the plant from the inside.
Gros Michel History: The first time bananas went extinct.
The Warning: Can gene editing save the banana plant?
