Although cassava is a major food crop, its scientific breeding began only recently compared with other crops. Significant progress has been achieved, particularly in Asia where cassava is used mainly for industrial processes and no major biotic constraints affect its productivity. Cassava breedin...

One of the objectives of the cassava-breeding project at CIAT is the identification of clones with special root quality characteristics. A large number of self-pollinations have been made in search of useful recessive traits. During 2006 harvests an S1 plant produced roots that stained brownish-r...

The economies of many Latin American countries have opened up to the global markets in recent years. These changes have had drastic effects on the agriculture of those countries. For instance, whereas Colombia did not import maize in 1990, ten years later it was importing more that 2 million tonn...


Ceballos, H.[Global cassava strategy for the new millenium:CIAT's perspective]Global cassava strategy for the new millenium:CIAT's perspective

Cassava is probably the most efficient producer of carbohydrate per unit land area under tropical conditions. The high productivity of cassava makes it an attractive source of renewable industrial raw material, provided ways are found to reduce production costs and solve constraints. Cassava has ...

Cassava is a key food security staple and a competitive feedstock for multiple industrial processes and end uses. Farmers grow hybrids which are reproduced vegetatively. Several programs have used the same breeding scheme for the last 40 years. Significant progress has been made, particularly wit...
