Since its foundation in 1967, the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA) has worked, in partnership with national agricultural research systems in sub-Saharan Africa, on the improvement of cassava and dissemination of improved cassava germplasm. This paper describes the impact of ...

Cassava weeds and management in Nigeria
Cassava mosaic disease (CMD) is a viral disease of the important tropical staple crop cassava (Manihot esculenta) and preferred management involves use of host–plant resistance. The best available resistance is controlled by a single dominant gene. Serial analysis of gene expression (SAGE) was us...

Serial analysis of gene expression (SAGE) of hostplant resistance to the cassava mosaic disease (CMD)
The predominant source of resistance to the cassava mosaic disease (CMD) is known to be polygenic requiring evaluation in multiple environments to characterise resistant genotypes, which makes the detection of genes for resistance using segregation analysis inefficient. Recently, some landraces h...
