Reddy, B.V.S.Rangel, AFIglesias, C.A.Bernal Riobo, Jaime Humberto[Evaluation of sorghum and pearl millet for acid-soil tolerance in the Oriental Llanos of Colombia]Evaluation of sorghum and pearl millet for acid-soil tolerance in the Oriental Llanos of Colombia

Microsatellite amplification was performed on cassava (Manihot esculenta) and six other different species (all wild) of the Manihot genus. We used ten pairs of microsatellite primers previously developed from cassava, detecting 124 alleles in a sample of 121 accessions of the seven species. The n...


Roa, ACChavarriaga Aguirre, PaulDuque E., Myriam CristinaMaya, M.M.Bonierbale, Merideth W.Iglesias, C.A.Tohme, Joseph M.[Cross-species amplification of cassava (Manihot esculenta) (Euphorbiaceae) microsatellites: Allelic polymorphism and degree of relationship]Cross-species amplification of cassava (Manihot esculenta) (Euphorbiaceae) microsatellites: Allelic polymorphism and degree of relationship

People in vast areas of the tropics suffer from vitamin A deficiency, resulting in progressive eye damage and eventually leading to blindness. Improving the content of vitamin A precursors in staple crops could alleviate or solve such a problem. The objective of this work was to study the range o...


Iglesias, C.A.Mayer, Jorge EdgardChavez, L.Calle, F[Genetic potential and stability of carotene content in cassava roots]Genetic potential and stability of carotene content in cassava roots

The cassava core collection (601 genotypes) was evaluated for root and leaf contents of micronutrient minerals, ascorbic acid, and carotene. Wide genetic variability was observed for all measurements, indicating that there is good potential for exploiting and improving the nutritive value of cass...

The gene pools for breeding cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) in Africa currently contain only a fraction of the existing genetic variation found in Latin America where the crop originates. Our research aimed to broaden the genetic base in Africa by introducing Latin American (LA) germplasm. The...

Commercial cassava production from true cassava seeds (TCS) appears to be a promising option for reducing or eliminating several of the production constraints associated with vegetative propagation. The most important contribution of TCS would be to reduce virus build-up in vegetative material an...

The genome locations of the wound-response genes that were expressedduring the post-harvest physiological deterioration (PPD) of cassava, suchas phenylalanine ammonia lyase, ?-1.3 glucanase, hydroxyprolinerich glycoprotein, catalase, 1-aminocyclopropane 1-carboxylate, cysteineprotease inhibitor, ...

The cassava core collection was selected to represent, with minimum repetitiveness, the potential genetic diversity of the crop. The core (630 accessions) was chosen from the base collection (over 5500 accessions) on the basis of diversity of origin (country and geographic), morphology, isozyme p...
