Cassava is an ideal vehicle for delivering provitamin A carotenoids to human populations affected by deficiency of this important micronutrient. Rapid cycling recurrent selection has proven to be very effective increasing carotenoids levels in cassava. The maximum level of total carotenoids incre...

New approaches for quantifying carotenoids content in cassava roots
Multilocational trials were conducted in several agroecological zones in West Africa to assess the magnitude of genotype x environment (G x E) interaction and to identify stable varieties which could be used in breeding programs in the region. The reaction of the varieties to major cassava diseas...

Genotype x environment interaction studies with cassava
Cassava is an important starchy root crop and a major staple for more than 70 million people in Nigeria. New yellow-fleshed genotypes are being developed to combat vitamin A deficiency. Trials of 18 yellow-fleshed genotypes and two officially released white-fleshed clones, used as checks for 2008...
