Background and Aims Cassava (Manihot esculenta) is an important food crop in the tropics that has a high growth rate in optimal conditions, but also performs well in drought-prone climates. The objectives of this work were to determine the effects of water deficit and rewatering on the rate of ...

Effect of elevated CO<sub(2)> concentration and nitrate: Ammonium ratios on gas exchange and growth of cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz).
Due to the rise in anthropogenic greenhouse gas concentrations, the earth's climate is expected to change, with precipitation being reduced in some areas resulting in growth-limiting drought and, as a consequence, reduced plant productivity. We investigated the physiological and growth responses ...

Elevated CO2 concentrations alleviate the inhibitory effect of drought on physiology and growth of cassava plants.
Elevated atmospheric CO2 will change the requirements plants have for minerals, mainly nitrogen, altering the relationship between nutrient demand and plant growth. Here, we evaluated the interacting effects between two concentrations of CO2 (390 or 750 µL L-1) and two nitrogen (N) levels (3 mM o...
