Amplified fragment length polymophism was assessed in 20 land races and nine elite lines of cassava from Africa, resistant and susceptible to the cassava mosaic disease (CMD). Eleven accessions from a representative core collection from Latin America, previously studied by AFLPs, were included as...

AFLP analysis of African cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) germplasm resistant to the cassava mosaic disease (CMD)
We applied the cDNA-AFLP (amplified fragment length polymorphism) technique to mRNA from the parents of a cassava (Manihot esculenta) genetic mapping population, and obtained more than 500 transcript-derived fragments (TDFs) that were unique in either parent. A subset of 50 TDFs were cloned and s...

Cassava bacterial blight (CBB), incited by Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. manihotis (Xam), is the most important bacterial disease of cassava, a staple food source for millions of people in developing countries. Here we present a widely applicable strategy for elucidating the virulence components of ...

Highthroughput genomic sequencing of cassava bacterial blight strains identifies conserved effectors to target for durable resistance
Smallholder agricultural systems, strongly dependent on water resources and investments in shared infrastructure, make a significant contribution to food security in developing countries. These communities are being increasingly integrated into the global economy and are exposed to new global cli...
