  • Abstract : This Musalogue (3rd in the series) presents the remarkable plantain collection (145 accessions) of CARBAP in Cameroon. It aims to facilitate the correct identification of African plantains and disseminate the important information on their extraordinary diversity, agronomic potential, and post-harvest qualities, in order to encourage better use by researchers, extension workers, farmers and other actors in the plantain community. The catalogue is a result of collaboration by a multidisciplinary scientific team from the following institutes: CARBAP, Cirad and Bioversity International, who participated in the project Food Security Thematic Programme Phase 2 (FSTP2) of the European Union, which permitted the collection and analysis of the data presented in the catalogue
