Alabi, O.J.Kumar, P.L.Naidu, R.A.[Cassava mosaic disease: a curse to food security in subSaharan Africa]Cassava mosaic disease: a curse to food security in subSaharan Africa

Cassava is the most important root and tuber crop in Sierra Leone. Its low yield can be attributed to several production-limiting factors including cassava mosaic disease (CMD). This study examined in a much wider scope the diversity, prevalence, distribution, incidence and level of severity of t...


Samura, A.E.Massaquoi, F.B.Mansaray, A.Kumar, P.L.Koroma, J.P.C.Fomba, S.N.Dixon, A.[Status and diversity of the cassava Mosaic disease causal agents in Sierra Leone]Status and diversity of the cassava Mosaic disease causal agents in Sierra Leone

Uniplex and multiplex reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) protocols were developed for the detection of cassava brown streak viruses (CBSVs) in single and mixed infections with cassava mosaic begomoviruses (CMBs) in a tropical crop plant, cassava (Manihot esculenta). CMBs con...


Abarshi, M.M.Mohammed, I.Jeremiah, S.C.Legg, J.P.Kumar, P.L.Hillocks, R.J.Maruthi, M.N.[Multiplex RTPCR assays for the simultaneous detection of both RNA and DNA viruses infecting cassava and the common occurrence of mixed infections by two cassava brown streak viruses in East Africa]Multiplex RTPCR assays for the simultaneous detection of both RNA and DNA viruses infecting cassava and the common occurrence of mixed infections by two cassava brown streak viruses in East Africa

Aims: To develop a multiplex TaqMan-based real-time PCR assay (qPCR) for the simultaneous detection and quantification of both RNA and DNA viruses affecting cassava (Manihot esculenta) in eastern Africa. Methods and Results: The diagnostic assay was developed for two RNA viruses; Cassava brown st...


Otti, G.Bouvaine, S.Kimata, B.Mkamillo, G.Kumar, P.L.Tomlins, Keith I.Maruthi, M.N.[High-throughput multiplex real-time PCR assay for the simultaneous quantification of DNA and RNA viruses infecting cassava plants]High-throughput multiplex real-time PCR assay for the simultaneous quantification of DNA and RNA viruses infecting cassava plants

The whitefy Bemisia tabaci, a species complex consisting of many morphologically indistinguishable species divided into distinct clades, is one of the most globally important agricultural pests and plant virus vectors. Cassava-colonizing B. tabaci transmits viruses that cause cassava mosaic disea...


Chen, W.Wosula, Everlyne N.Hasegawa, D.K.Casinga, C.Shirima, R.R.Fiaboe, K.K.M.Hanna, R.Fosto, A.Goergen, Georg E.Tamò, M.Mahuku, George S.Murithi, H.M.Tripathi, L.Mware, B.Kumar, P.L.Ntawuruhunga, PheneasMoyo, C.Yomeni, M.Boahen, S.Edet, M.Awoyale, W.Wintermantel, William M.Ling, K.S.Legg, J.P.Fei, Z.[Genome of the African cassava whitefly Bemisia tabaci and distribution and genetic diversity of cassava-colonizing whiteflies in Africa]Genome of the African cassava whitefly Bemisia tabaci and distribution and genetic diversity of cassava-colonizing whiteflies in Africa

Cassava mosaic disease (CMD) caused by the whitefly-transmitted begomoviruses (family Geminiviridae) is amajor threat to production of cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) in Côte d’Ivoire. A survey was conducted in themajor production zones in Côte d’Ivoire to assess the incidence, severity, and d...


Toualy, M.N.Y.Akinbade, S.Koutoua, S.Diallo, H.Kumar, P.L.[Incidence and distribution of cassava mosaic begomoviruses in Cote d'Ivoire]Incidence and distribution of cassava mosaic begomoviruses in Cote d'Ivoire

Cassava bacterial blight (CBB), incited by Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. manihotis (Xam), is the most important bacterial disease of cassava, a staple food source for millions of people in developing countries. Here we present a widely applicable strategy for elucidating the virulence components of ...
