Cassava brown streak disease (CBSD) has emerged as the most important viral disease of cassava (Manihot esculenta) in Africa and is a major threat to food security. CBSD is caused by two distinct species of ipomoviruses, Cassava brown streak virus and Ugandan cassava brown streak virus, belonging...

The effect of cassava mosaic virus disease (CMD) was compared on plants grown from cuttings that were initially virus-free at planting and those infected with a mild strain of East African cassava mosaic virus-Uganda (EACMV-UG). All initially healthy plants developed CMD symptoms within 5 months ...


Owor, B.Legg, J.P.Okao‐Okuja, G.Obonyo, R.Kyamanywa, S.Ogenga‐Latigo, M.W.[Field studies of cross protection with cassava Mosaic Geminiviruses in Uganda]Field studies of cross protection with cassava Mosaic Geminiviruses in Uganda

Cassava mosaic disease (CMD), arguably Africa's greatest plant protection problem, has been known to occur in central/West Africa for more than 70 years. There is, however, no published record of the occurrence of CMD or the cassava mosaic geminiviruses (CMGs) that cause it from the central Afric...


Legg, J.P.Ndjelassili, F.Okao-Okuja, G.[First report of cassava mosaic disease and cassava mosaic geminiviruses in Gabon]First report of cassava mosaic disease and cassava mosaic geminiviruses in Gabon

Cassava brown streak disease (CBSD) remains a major threat to the livelihoods of millions of smallholders in sub-Saharan Africa. This viral disease was initially confined to the coastal lowland areas of eastern and southern Africa. More recently there has been a major new outbreak in the Great La...

Autor: Legg, J.P.

Studies were undertaken to investigate host relationships of populations of Bemisiu tubuci taken from the major crop hosts in Uganda. B. tubuci adults taken from cotton and sweet potato did not colonize cassava. None survived for longer than two days and nymphs emerging from eggs laid on cassava ...

Surveys of the incidence of African cassava mosaic disease (ACMD) and its whitefly vector, Bernisiu tabaci, were made at three-month intervals in 1992 and 1993 along two South-North transects. One was in central and the other in eastern Uganda. ACMD incidence was high within the northern localiti...
