    Question: Removal of male flowers in banana after completion of the female phase? (IBPS AFO 2020)

    Options:

    Denavelling
    Desuckering
    Detopping
    Detrashing

    ✅Explanation:
    Denavelling is the specific term for removing the male flowers (the remaining portion of the banana blossom) after the female flowers have been pollinated and fruit development has begun. This practice helps redirect the plant's resources towards fruit growth and improves the overall quality of the banana bunches.

    📌Other Options Explanations:
    -Option B: Desuckering involves removing excess shoots (suckers) that emerge from the base of the banana plant to ensure that only the main stem bears fruit.
    -Option C: Detopping is the practice of cutting off the top portion of the banana plant after flowering to prevent further vegetative growth and encourage fruit maturation.
    -Option D: Detrashing refers to removing dead leaves and other debris from around the banana plant to maintain hygiene and prevent disease.
    -Option E: The spadix is the fleshy central axis of the banana inflorescence (flower cluster) that bears the male and female flowers.
