However, there is limited research that explores hyperspectral imaging of bananas and its relationship with the chemical composition and growing conditions. In the study, the relations that exist between the visible near-infrared hyperspectral reflectance imaging data in the 400\u20131000 nm range of the bananas collected from different countries, the compositional traits and local growing conditions (altitude, temperature and rainfall) and production management (organic\/conventional) were explored. The main compositional traits included moisture, starch, dietary fibre, protein, carotene content and the CIE L*a*b* colour values were also determined. The principal component analysis showed the preliminary separation of bananas from different geographical origins and production systems. The compositional and spectral data revealed positively and negatively moderate correlations (r around \u00b10.50, p &lt; 0.05) between the carotene, starch content, and colour values (a*, b*) on the one hand and the wavelength ranges 405\u2013525 nm, 615\u2013645 nm, 885\u2013985 nm on the other hand. Since the variation in composition and colour values were related to rainfall and temperature, the spectral information is likely also influenced by the growing conditions. The results could be useful to the industry for the improvement of banana quality and traceability.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s20205793","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,10,14]],"date-time":"2020-10-14T21:24:39Z","timestamp":1602710679000},"page":"5793","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":13,"title":["Study on the Relations between Hyperspectral Images of Bananas (Musa spp.) from Different Countries, Their Compositional Traits and Growing Conditions"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"20","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9035-2362","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Zhijun","family":"Wang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Food Quality and Design Group, Wageningen University and Research, P.O.
