The impact of cassava transformation technologies for agricultural development in Africa will depend largely on how successfully these capabilities are transferred and adapted to the African environment and local needs. Here we report on the first successful establishment of cassava regeneration ...

Production of the first transgenic cassava in Africa via direct shoot organogenesis from friable embryogenic calli and germination of maturing somatic embryos
Molecular-marker-aided evaluation of germplasm plays an important role indefining the genetic diversity of plant genotypes for genetic and populationimprovement studies. A collection of African cassava landraces and elite culti-vars was analysed for genetic diversity using 20 amplified fragment l...

Genotypic differences in the ability of immature leaf lobes and apical shoot meristems of cassava to form primary somatic embryos in P-CIM were observed (p ≤ 0.05). The mean number of apical meristems forming primary organized embryogenic structures when cultured in embryo induction medium supple...
