The aim of the study was to investigate the chemical composition and pasting properties of 43 cassava mosaic desease (CMD) resistant clones planted at different locations (Ibadan, Onne and Mokwa) in Nigeria under rainfed conditions in 2003 and 2004. Ranges of chemical contents (%) were for amylos...

Pre- and postharvest factors such as genetic factors, environmental conditions during the growth of the plant and the method of starch isolationhave been found to have a profound effect on the properties of root and tuber starches. The physicochemical, functional and pasting propertiesas well as ...

Processing cassava onto pellets, an internationally acceptable and commercially rewarding cassava product minimizes quantitative and qualitative losses. Pellet samples were produced through the conventional chipping, drying, milling then pelleting with and without steaming (CDMP-S and CDMP) and m...

There is an increasing interest in the use of cassava roots for food and industrial purposes especially in the
baking industry in Nigeria. Development of some cassava mosaic disease (CMD) resistant clones and
application of inorganic fertilizers are principal strategies targeted in the country to...

Bread from composite cassava wheat flour. II: effect of cassava genotype and nitrogen fertilizer on bread quality
Cassava is widely consumed in Africa where malnutrition is rampant; there is, therefore, a major effort to produce micronutrient biofortified cassava. Adoption of such cassava genotypes will largely depend on their agronomic performance, resistance to biotic stresses, and the stability of these t...
