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...

In a survey for cassava mosaic begomoviruses conducted in 1997 and 1998 in Nigeria, East African cassava mosaic virus (EACMV) was detected by the polymerase chain reaction together with African cassava mosaic virus (ACMV) in 27 out of 290 cassava leaf samples of infected plants from 254 farmers' ...

The feeding behavior of biotype E greenbug, Schizaphis graminum (Rondani), on seedlings of sorghum, Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench, genotypes with various levels and mechanisms of seedling resistance was examined in a 12-h period with a computerized electronic insect feeding monitor. Results indicat...

Three field trials were conducted at IITA, Ibadan, Nigeria between 1993 and 1995 to identify a rapid method of screening cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) cultivars for canopy retention and to determine the association between canopy retention and resistance to green spider mite (Mononychellus t...

Twelve cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) genotypes were planted under natural field conditions for two different cropping seasons (wet and dry), in 1992 and 1993 at the research farm of the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA), Ibadan, Nigeria. The trial studied the effect of p...

Cassava anthracnose disease (CAD) is a major stem disease of cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) in the cassava growing areas of the world. To identify markers associated with resistance to CAD, F1 progenies were produced from a cross between resistant genotype TME 117, and susceptible genotype TM...

Cassava mosaic disease (CMD) is the major production constraint on cassava ( Manihot esculenta ) in Angola. Previous reports derived from single samples recorded the presence of African cassava mosaic virus (ACMV) and East African cassava mosaic virus (EACMV) in Angola. Regional CMD monitoring in...

The concentration of African cassava mosaic virus (ACMV) was assessed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in relation to symptom severity among resistant, moderately resistant and susceptible cassava genotypes. Resistant genotype NR 8083 had significantly lower symptom severity scores (P < 0·05)...

The changes in content of total carotenoid at each stage of processing cassava storage roots were investigatedwith three improved yellow-fleshed cassava varieties (TMS 94⁄0006, TMS 01⁄1235 and TMS 01⁄1371)grown in 2005⁄2006 in a randomised complete block design with two replications at Ibadan, Ni...

Iron (Fe) and Zinc (Zn) concentrations in tuberous roots of twenty-five cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) genotypes were determined over 2 years (2004/2005 and 2005/2006) at five locations representing distinct agroecologies in Nigeria. The objectives were to study the magnitude and nature of ge...
