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) caused by the fungus Colletotrichum gloeosporioides f.sp. manihotis has become one of the major economic diseases of cassava in Africa. The expansion of cassava production farmlands particularly in the humid rainfall zones of West and Central Africa has led to an...

Thirty-five cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) genotypes from the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA), germplasm collection were planted in May 1992 under natural disease infection conditions, at the IITA field plots at Ibadan, Nigeria. The genotypes were evaluated at monthly i...

Thirty isolates of Colletotrichum gloeosporioides f. sp. manihotis causal organism of cassava anthracnose disease (CAD), were collected from cankers on cassava stems in cassava-growing zones of Nigeria. Using a pathogenicity test, five virulent isolates (05FCN, 10FCN, 12FCN, 18FCN and 26FCN) were...
