Most cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) improvement programs depend on the range of variability available within the cultigen for breeding varieties adapted to target environments. Efforts by some programs to introduce additional variability from wild Manihot species into cassava have led to impr...

Interspecific hybridization in the genus Manihot progress and prospects
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...

An agroecologically-based germplasm enhancement strategy to further broaden the genetic base of cassava in selected ecologies of Africa was initiated by CIAT and IITA in 1990. Crosses are being made at CIAT, in Colombia, using parents adapted to four different agroecologies of South America with ...
