Cassava roots contain cyanogenic glucosides. Malawian farmers classify cultivars into two groups based on the perceived danger of eating raw roots that they associate with bitterness. In the vernacular, cultivars that produce roots with bitter taste are called vyakubaba (bitter), whereas those yi...
Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) and sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas Lam) are important food and cash crops in Malawi. However, key information regarding varieties grown, sources of planting materials, post-harvest handling, utilisation and tuber yields is lacking. A study was, therefore, conducte...
Le manioc (Manihot esculenta Crantz) et la patate douce (Ipomoea batatas Lam) sont des importants aliments et plantes génératrices de ressources en Malawi. Cependant, l\'information clé concernant les variétés plantées, les sources de matériels de plantation, les manœuvres post-récoltes, l\'utili...
Cassava(Manihot esculenta), a root crop originating in Tropical America, has been called Africa’s food insurance but vital as that is, it has the potential to be much more. Already, cassava provides more than half of the dietary calories for over 200 million people in sub-Saharan Africa (about ha...
Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) is the second most important staple food crop in sub-Saharan Africa, providing up to 285 calories per person per day. Cassava starch is a potentially important industrial material in Malawi. Industries hesitate to use cassava starch because the powder sold by so...
Twenty four arbitrarily selected cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) landraces, supplied by the germplasm collections in Kibaha and Ukiriguru research stations of Tanzania, were analysed by two different molecular marker techniques. Genetic distances on the basis of RAPD (random amplified polymorp...
The Southern Africa Root Crops Research Netwrok (SARRNET), in collaboration with national research programmes in Southern Africa Development Community (SADC ) have made considerable impact in the SADC region in terms of promoting cassava (Manihot esculenta) and sweetpotato (Ipomea batatus) produc...
Le réseau de recherche du sud de l'Afrique en racines des plantes (SARRNET), en collaboration avec les programmes de recherche national des communautés de développement du sud de l'Afrique (SADC) ont rapporté des impacts considérables dans la région du SADC en termes de promotion de production de...
Cassava mosaic disease (CMD) is the major production constraint oncassava (Manihot esculenta) in Angola. Previous reports derived fromsingle samples recorded the presence of African cassava mosaic virus(ACMV) and East African cassava mosaic virus (EACMV) in Angola.Regional CMD ...
The major constraints to stable production of cassava in Africa are diseases, insects, mites, weeds, soil and agronomic limitations and socio-economic factors. Of the economic diseases, African cassava mosaic, bacterial blight, and anthracnose are the most important. The green spider mite and cas...
This paper evaluates the impact of a cassava research-for-development program on farm level outcomes.The program was implemented in the Democratic Republic of Congo from 2001 to 2009. We apply pro-pensity score matching, Rosenbaum bounds on treatment effects, Altonji et al. method of selection on...
