A study was conducted to determine the extent of genetic diversity among African cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) accessions resistant to the cassava mosaic virus disease (CMD), using simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers. The accessions included a breeding stock (clone 58308), five improved lin...

Assessment of genetic diversity among African cassava Manihot esculenta Crantz accessions resistant to the cassava mosaic virus disease using SSR markers
Cassava (Manihot esculenta) is a tropical crop that is grown in Africa, Latin America and Southeast Asia. Cassava was introduced from Latin America into West and East Africa at two independent events. In Uganda a serious threat to cassava's survival is the cassava mosaic disease (CMD). Uganda has...

Several molecular marker systems have been developed for assessing genetic diversity in crop germplasm collections. A trade-off often exists between the number of loci that can feasibly be sampled by a marker system and the amount of information provided by each locus. We compared the usefulness ...

La yuca se cultiva por sus raíces y es el tercer cultivo fuente de calorías en el trópico. Los limitantes de la productividad incluyen constricciones bióticas y abióticas. Adicionalmente, los productores tienen problemas en el mercadeo por su rápido deterioro poscosecha y el bajo nivel de almidón...

One of the objectives of the cassava-breeding project at CIAT is the identification of clones with special root quality characteristics. A large number of self-pollinations have been made in search of useful recessive traits. During 2006 harvests an S1 plant produced roots that stained brownish-r...

Discovery of an amylose-free starch mutant in cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz)
Cassava (Manihot esculenta) is an allogamous, vegetatively propagated, Neotropical crop that is also widely grown in tropical Africa and Southeast Asia. To elucidate genetic diversity and differentiation in the crop's primary and secondary centers of diversity, and the forces shaping them, SSR ma...
