Cassava is one of the main carbohydrate sources in the tropics, and it has worldwide importance as basic food for millions of persons in America and Africa. This root crop is affected by cassava frog skin disease that in Colombia produces yield losses of almost 90%. A phytoplasma was associated w...

Detection and characterization of a phytoplasma associated with frog skin disease in cassava
The application of biotechnology tools has made it possible to make significant advances in the detection of pathogens and in the study of the genetic variability of pathogen populations. As a result, adequate disease management strategies can be planned, and disease resistance markers for plants...

Applying biotechnology tools to improve control diseases of some tropical crops
Cassava frogskin disease (CFSD) is an economically important root disease of cassava (Manihot
esculenta) in Colombia and other South American countries, including Brazil, Venezuela, Peru,
Costa Rica, and Panama. The roots of severely affected plants are thin, making them unsuitable
for consumptio...
