Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) is a hot-climate crop that is also grown in cool areas of the highland tropics, where yields are reduced. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of growth temperature on photosynthesis of two cassava cultivars from contrasting habitat and to determ...

We want to understand the physiological mechanisms underlying the high photosynthetic rates of cassava under drought stress and high temperatures. Histological analysis of leaf cross sections with cassava PEPC specific antiserum to establish the enzymic compartmentalization pattem is our next goa...
