    Wild bananas, yes.

    The ones you eat are a perfect example of a genetically modified plant - cultivated specifically for human consumption.

      they are also triploids, means they are sterile. they do some wierd things like forcing the original bananas to have unreduced gametes. Also note that polyploidy in planets allows them to do this naturally, also give a them evolutionary advantages, the ones that arnt odd number polyploids.
