There is no such thing as a banana seed. All banana types are singular lineages of clones. All bananas of a certain type (currently cavendish is the one exported to all around the world) are the same genetically, that’s why they are so susceptible to colony-destroying fungal infections.

There absolutely is. The commercial bananas just had seeds bread out of them
