Breeding efforts have focused on improving agronomic traits of the cassava plant however little research has been done to enhance the crop palatability. This review investigates the links between cassava traits and end-user preference in relation with sensory characteristics. The main trait is st...

Breeding cassava relies on several selection stages (single row trial-SRT; preliminary; advanced; and uniform yield trials—UYT). This study uses data from 14 years of evaluations. From more than 20,000 genotypes initially evaluated only 114 reached the last stage. The objective was to assess how ...

Cassava is a key food security staple and a competitive feedstock for multiple industrial processes and end uses. Farmers grow hybrids which are reproduced vegetatively. Several programs have used the same breeding scheme for the last 40 years. Significant progress has been made, particularly wit...
