Information
has glosseng: Gros Michel, or Big Mike, was an early export cultivar of banana, and was until the 1950s the main variety exported to the United States. Although there are many banana cultivars, Gros Michel was especially suitable for export to non-tropical nations. Following its susceptibility to Panama disease, a fungus which attacks the roots of the banana plant, it was phased out in favor of the Vietnamese Cavendish banana, which was more resistant to the disease. Less care was required to ship Gros Michel than the now common Cavendish banana.
