A substantial impact on Africa agriculture can be made through research on crop improvement for the extensive inland valley agro-ecosystems (IVS) extending from the humid forest to the savanna zones in sub saharan Africa. Systematic surveys of farmers have shown that cassava is a favoured upland ...

Four hybrid water yam (Dioscorea alata) genotypes (TDa 00/00194, TDa 00/00103, TDa 00/00104, TDa 00/00363) with two superior landraces (TDa 92-2 and UM 680) were evaluated for high and stable yields, pest and disease resistance, and acceptable food and market qualities in 2006 using ...

Quatre hybrides génotypes d’igname, l’eau yam (Dioscorea alata) (TDa 00/00194, TDa 00/00103, TDa 00/00104, TDa 00/00363 avec deux variétés supérieurs de races- une variété qui tolère l’effort biotique et abiotique ayant pour le résultat la stabilité élevée de rendement (TDa 92-2 et U...

Production of improved water yam (Dioscorea alata) genotypes that are suitable for the preparation of amala (a popular darkish Nigerian food) would likely enhance the economic importance of the crop in Nigeria. Fermented flour (oven dried and sun dried) made from tubers of eight new improved D.al...

Manihot esculenta.This paper which is based on information collected as part of Collaborative Study of Cassava in Africa (COSCA) provides information on cassava genotypes cultivated in sub-Saharan Africa. It shows that there is a high degree of turnover in the cassava genotypes cultivated. Farmer...

Stable as well as adaptable genotypes of high-yielding cassava cultivars, should be developed and made available to farmers, to ensure increases in cassava production in a target region or country in sub-Saharan Africa. As farmer-to-farmer contact is the primary means of diffusion of new crop var...

Multilocational trials were conducted in several agroecological zones in West Africa to assess the magnitude of genotype x environment (G x E) interaction and to identify stable varieties which could be used in breeding programs in the region. The reaction of the varieties to major cassava diseas...
