Studies were conducted at the advance pathology laboratory and glasshouse at the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA), Ibadan, Nigeria, to determine the inoculums threshold of fungal suspensions at different concentration levels, and also to investigate latent infection of cassa...

Investigation of inoculum threshold and latent infection in Colletotrichum gloeosporiodes f. sp. manihotis in cassava cultivars
The response of yam (Dioscorea) cultivars to artificial and natural infections with minisett rot pathogens was investigated. None of the 20 yam cultivars were resistant to Sclerotium rolfsii [Corticium rolfsii] or Trichoderma longibrachyatum. Cultivars TDa 84/093, 85/236, 85/257, TDr 608, 745, 81...

Susceptibility of yam cultivars to minisett rot pathogens
Thirty isolates of Colletotrichum gloeosporioides f. sp. manihotis causal organism of cassava anthracnose disease (CAD), were collected from cankers on cassava stems in cassava-growing zones of Nigeria. Using a pathogenicity test, five virulent isolates (05FCN, 10FCN, 12FCN, 18FCN and 26FCN) were...
