BANANAS AND APPLES ARE ACIDIC - DR. SEBI

Bananas and apples are both cultivated fruits that have undergone significant human-driven selection and hybridization over time, but their status as "hybrids" differs in specifics.

Bananas: Modern bananas (Musa × paradisiaca) are hybrids primarily derived from two wild species, Musa acuminata and Musa balbisiana. Most edible bananas are seedless, sterile hybrids, often triploid (having three sets of chromosomes), which makes them unable to reproduce naturally through seeds. These hybrids were developed through selective breeding over thousands of years, starting in Southeast Asia. Farmers propagated bananas vegetatively (through cuttings or suckers), selecting for desirable traits like sweetness, texture, and size. The Cavendish banana, the most common commercial variety, is a product of this hybridization and is genetically identical across most plantations, making it a clone rather than a diverse hybrid in the modern sense.

Apples: Apples (Malus domestica) are also hybrids, originating from the wild species Malus sieversii in Central Asia, with contributions from other species like Malus sylvestris. Domestication is estimated to have begun around 4,000–10,000 years ago, and modern apples are complex hybrids due to centuries of crossbreeding.

Unlike bananas, apples are not sterile and can produce seeds, but they are typically propagated through grafting to maintain consistent traits, as seedlings from cross-pollination often yield unpredictable results. Varieties like Gala, Fuji, or Granny Smith are the result of deliberate crosses to enhance flavor, size, or disease resistance. Apples are genetically diverse, with thousands of cultivars worldwide.
