Growth and N uptake in pot-grown maize, beans, and cassava were evaluated under 2 levels of soil N at CIAT-Palmira (Colombia). The lower amount of the element reduced its uptake by the 3 species, resulting in lower tissue concn., especially in the leaves. Under low N, DM accumulation was also red...

Estimation of dry matter content in cassava by the specific gravity method
The current status of cassava cultivation in Brazil is analyzed; aspects covered are the distribution of production, cultivation systems, main uses given to the crop, and problems encountered in the different geographic regions of the country (north, NE, SE, south, and central-west). An overview ...
Se analiza el estado actual del cultivo de la yuca en Brasil, cubriendo aspectos de la distribucion de la produccion, los sistemas de cultivo y los principales usos y problemas encontrados en las diferentes regiones geograficas del pais (Norte, Nordeste, Sudeste, Sur y Centro-Oeste). Tambien se p...
The gene pools for breeding cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) in Africa currently contain only a fraction of the existing genetic variation found in Latin America where the crop originates. Our research aimed to broaden the genetic base in Africa by introducing Latin American (LA) germplasm. The...

Marker-assisted introgression of resistance to cassava mosaic disease into Latin American germplasm for the genetic improvement of cassava in Africa
Climatic and edaphic factors are important determinants of the growth and yield potential of an ecological environment. Among other cultural practices, planting methods play a very vital role in the performance of a crop. The effects of planting methods and soil moisture on cassava (Manihot escul...
