Abstract Banana (Musa spp.) is an ancient and popular fruit plant with highly
nutritious fruit. The pseudo-stem of banana represents on average 75% of the total
dry mass but its valorization as a nutritional and industrial by-product is limited.
Recent advances in metabolomics have paved the way to understand and evaluate
the presence of diverse sets of metabolites in different plant parts. This study
aimed at exploring the diversity of primary and secondary metabolites in the
banana pseudo-stem. Hereby, we identified and quantified 373 metabolites from
a diverse range of classes including, alkaloids, flavonoids, lipids, phenolic acids,… More >
