Order Zingiberales: the musaceaes and its relationship to related plants
Abstract
Musaceae include food species commonly called plantains and bananas which are often classified as giant herbs. There is controversy regarding its taxonomic classification due to the existence of various opposing views among taxonomists, including: 1) the fact that some families within the order Zingiberales may be closely related leading to a decrease in the number of those families, 2) there is evidence of the existence of three genera within the Musaceae family (Musa, Ensete and Musella), usually Musella is considered within the genus Ensete and 3) in the presence of high variation among species that comprise the genus Musa, sections were created comprising species with many similarities, leaving out species such as Musa beccarii, Musa nonticola and Musa suratii, although have not yet been placed in any section.
