In a bid to fast-track the process of selection of cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) genotypes resistant to the cassava mosaic disease (CMD), caused by whitefly-transmitted begomoviruses, a number of molecular markers have been developed to map resistance genes. The simple sequence repeat (SSR) ...

Discovery of single nucleotide polymorphisms, (SNPs) as a tool in marker-assisted breeding of cassava, Manihot esculenta was studied. The principal objective of this study is to discover single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in some panels of elite lines (ELs) of cassava and in some mapping popu...

Modern breeding of root and tuber staple food crops is the most practical strategy to address the challenges of small holding farmers in developing nations. The rapid advance of genomics technologies can enable breeders to design cost effective and efficient breeding strategies by exploiting the ...

Cassava is currently the third most important source of calories in the tropics and consumed as a staple food. Several cassava varieties have yellow flesh color, and contain moderate amounts of carotenoid or beta-carotene which is a precursor of vitamin A. Consumption of carotene rich foods is th...
