Pérez Velásquez, Juan CarlosCeballos, H.Ramírez, I.C.Lenis, Jorge I.Calle, FMorante, N[Adjustment for missing plants in cassava evaluation trials]Adjustment for missing plants in cassava evaluation trials

People in vast areas of the tropics suffer from vitamin A deficiency, resulting in progressive eye damage and eventually leading to blindness. Improving the content of vitamin A precursors in staple crops could alleviate or solve such a problem. The objective of this work was to study the range o...


Iglesias, C.A.Mayer, Jorge EdgardChavez, L.Calle, F[Genetic potential and stability of carotene content in cassava roots]Genetic potential and stability of carotene content in cassava roots

Little is known about the inheritance of agronomic traits in cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz). The vegetative multiplication of cassava allows cloning of individual genotypes, and separates environmental from genetic variation in the within-family variation. Knowing the magnitude of between- an...


Pérez Velásquez, Juan CarlosCeballos, H.Jaramillo, GustavoMorante, NCalle, FArias, B.Bellotti, Anthony C.[Epistasis in cassava adapted to midaltitude valley environments]Epistasis in cassava adapted to midaltitude valley environments

Specific recommendations for cassava cultivation and soil conservation in the plateau area of the Colombian Llanos Orientales are given. These include choice of area (level), soil preparation, var. (M Ven 77, M Per 245, and HMC 2, and the hybrids CM 507-37, CM 523-7, and CM 430-37), selection of ...


Howeler, Reinhardt H.Calle, FSalazar, E[El cultivo de yuca para la altillanura plana de los Llanos Orientales de Colombia]El cultivo de yuca para la altillanura plana de los Llanos Orientales de Colombia

Cassava roots are the most important commercial product from this crop. Roots have two major components: the starchy parenchyma and the peel with higher amount of fibre and cyanogenic glucosides. In this study, a sample of 64 clones grown in replicated trials in five locations were evaluated for ...


Pérez, J.C.Lenis, Jorge I.Calle, FMorante, NSánchez, T.Debouck, Daniel G.Ceballos, H.[Genetic variability of root peel thickness and its influence in extractacle starch from cassava (manihot esculenta Crantz) roots]Genetic variability of root peel thickness and its influence in extractacle starch from cassava (manihot esculenta Crantz) roots

Commercial cassava production from true cassava seeds (TCS) appears to be a promising option for reducing or eliminating several of the production constraints associated with vegetative propagation. The most important contribution of TCS would be to reduce virus build-up in vegetative material an...


Iglesias, C.A.Hershey, Clair H.Calle, FBolaños, A.[Propagating cassava (Manihot esculenta) by sexual seed]Propagating cassava (Manihot esculenta) by sexual seed

Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) is one of the most important sources of starch in the tropics. There is limited and contradictory information regarding cassava starch characteristics. The International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT) holds in trust FAO's cassava germplasm collection. St...


Sánchez, T.Salcedo, ECeballos, H.Dufour, D.L.Mafla, G.Morante, NCalle, FPérez Velásquez, Juan CarlosDebouck, Daniel G.Jaramillo, GustavoMoreno, I.X.[Screening of starch quality traits in cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz)]Screening of starch quality traits in cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz)

There is a limited knowledge on the inheritance of traits with agronomic relevance in cassava. A diallel study among 10 parental clones was conducted in the acid-soils environment in the eastern savannas of Colombia. Thirty clones were obtained for each F1 cross. Each clone was represented by six...


Calle, FPérez Velásquez, Juan CarlosGaitan, WMorante, NCeballos, H.Llano Rodríguez, Germán AlbertoÁlvarez, E.[Diallel inheritance of relevant traints in cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) adapted to acid-soil savannas]Diallel inheritance of relevant traints in cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) adapted to acid-soil savannas

Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) is an important commodity for industrial processes in tropical countries as one of the few alternatives to compete with imported maize (Zea mays L.). To maintain this competitiveness, cassava breeding needs to be as efficient as possible. This study provides one...
