Because bananas eaten daily are artificially cultivated triploid plants (that is, somatic chromosomes contain three chromosomes), triploid plants have no seeds, and naturally they cannot grow seedlings when planted in soil. However, not all bananas are like this. For example, wild bananas that have not been artificially propagated are diploid plants.

Banana is one of the most common fruits in the market. It is native to South Asia, belongs to Musaceae and Musa, and has many plants, mainly distributed in tropical and subtropical areas at low latitudes.

At present, there are 130 countries that grow bananas in the world. China has an ancient history of planting bananas, and bananas appeared in historical documents during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. At present, bananas are still planted in many provinces in southern China, so bananas are also known as one of the four major fruits in southern China.
