Phloem Bundles: Unwanted Strings on Your Banana | March 14, 2024
Annonce:
Encountering those tiny strings on bananas can be a curious moment. As you peel your banana, they emerge, somewhat dampening the joy of your fruit indulgence. These strings, known as phloem bundles, might seem like a nuisance, but they hold a fascinating secret.
Phloem bundles are the banana’s lifelines, running vertically and playing a pivotal role in nutrient transport from the plant to the developing fruit. They ensure that bananas grow healthy and delicious. So, while they might be a bit annoying, they’re a sign of your banana’s good upbringing!
Interestingly, you don’t have to remove these strings before eating your banana. They’re entirely edible and part of the fruit’s natural structure. What’s more, they contribute to the fight against diseases threatening banana crops worldwide, highlighting the importance of continuous research in disease-resistant banana varieties.
