Objective: Cassava is a crop with largely unexplored and unexplained potentially valuable genetic variability. This study aimed to investigate interrelationship between factors that control cassava yield. Methodology and results: Fourteen quantitative characteristics were assessed in ten cassava ...
The International Institute of Tropical of Agriculture (IITA) established its East and Southern Africa Regional Research Centre (ESARC) in Uganda at the former Namulonge Agricultural and Animal Research Institute (NAARI), presently Namulonge Animal and Crops Research Institute (NaCRRI), to addres...
Strains of the Aspergillusfungi, especially A.flavus and A. parasiticus,primarily produce aflatoxins which are a major health concern to man and livestock because of their acute and chronic health effects. Aflatoxins pose the greatest risk to health in tropical Africa because of their widespread ...
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...
In a bid to increase the number of genotypes reaching farmers, on-farm trials were conducted in 2001/2002 with the aim of increasing the number of genotypes available to farmers to be evaluated for performance, adaptation and acceptability. Twenty improved genotypes were planted in Lira, Nakasong...
Cassava, originally from South America, is the fourth most important source of calories in the developing world after the cereal crops wheat, maize, and rice. Worldwide, it feeds an estimated 700 million people directly or indirectly. Cassava production has increased steadily for the last 50 year...
Cassava is Africa's second most important food source in terms of calories consumed per capita. However, farmers use little or no fertilizer on cassava and scant information is available regarding the cassava yield response to mineral and organic fertilizer inputs in Zambia. This study was undert...
Response of cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) to fertigation as a form of nutrient delivery is unknown. The objectives of this study were to establish a balanced nutrition and to enhance agronomic nutrient use efficiency (ANUE) of cassava under fertigation. This study was conducted in the greenh...
