The reasons an integrated pest and disease control in cassava is justified are analyzed. Some cultural practices are listed that would lessen the problems caused by negative production factors within an ecosystem and would give high stable yields. Recommendations are given to maintain and enrich ...

A new disease of cassava has been found inducing epidemics in several cassava-growing areas of Colombia during the rainy season. The disease can be recognized by a characteristic exaggerated elongation of the internodes of young stems of infected plants and by the distortion and deformation of th...

The most important bacterial disease of cassava is cassava bacterial blight (CBB). This disease was first recorded in Brazil but was later reported in Colombia and observed in several other countries in South America and Africa. Symptoms of this disease are leaf spotting, wilting, dieback and gum...

Based on the considerations related to the characteristics of cassava, centers of origin, and the traditional system of cultivation, several conclusions were made regarding the relationships between the plant and NPFs, constituted by disease and pest pressures and edaphic and climatic factors. It...
