Cassava (Manihot esculenta) is a major food staple for nearly 600 million people in Africa, Asia, and Latin America. Major losses in yield result from biotic and abiotic stresses that include diseases such as Cassava Mosaic Disease (CMD) and Cassava Bacterial Blight (CBB), drought, and acid soils...

An EST resource for cassava and other species of Euphorbiaceae
We evaluated cassava bacterial blight (CBB) infection in an pair-cross population of 150 individuals derived from an intra-specific cross between two non-inbred cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) lines. The replicated trials were carried out in the field under high disease pressure over two conse...

QTL analysis of field resistance to Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. manihotis in cassava
Deployment of resistant varieties is one major approach to controlling cassava bacterial blight (CBB), caused by Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. manihotis (Xam). To understand the genetic determinism of resistance to CBB, the use of reliable parameters measuring resistance is necessary. In order to te...

Qualitative and quantitative evaluation of cassava bacterial blight resistance in F1 progeny of a cross between elite cassava clones
Cassava bacterial blight, caused by Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. manihotis (Xam), is a widespread disease that affects cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz). Studies on the pathogen population structure, pathogen diagnosis, identification and expression of plant genes involved in resistance have been ...

Recent progress in the characterization of molecular determinants in the Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. manihotis cassava interaction
Cassava bacterial blight (CBB), caused by Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. manihotis (Xam), is a major disease of cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) in Africa and South America. Planting resistant varieties is the preferred method of disease control. Recent genetic mapping of an F1 cross (TMS 30572 × C...
