    🔑 Key Points
    Banana Propagation:
    → Banana is propagated by suckers.
    → Nearly all cultivated varieties of bananas are seedless, so they are propagated vegetatively.
    → The principal method of propagation is by dividing suckers from the base of the main stem or underground corm.
    → The banana has a reduced underground stem called the rhizome.
    → Each bud on the rhizome sprouts and forms its own pseudostem and a new bulbous rhizome, known as a sucker.
    → A good sucker is free from insects and leaf mottling, with narrow, tapering leaves.
    → Banana belongs to the family Musaceae and genus Musa.
