The lack of good quality planting material of farmers' cassava varieties, produced locally and at low cost, is a major constraint limiting the expansion of cassava production in Colombia. This article describes the adaptation of conventional cassava propagation to a low-input scheme for rural tis...

Transgenic plants of cassava (Manihot esculenta) resistant to the herbicide Basta were obtained through Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. The plants also expressed the uidA gene and two were positive for PCR- and/or Southern-based detection of the nptII gene. Somatic-embryo-derived cotyledon...

Breeding goals of yield increases, root quality improvement, and disease resistance in cassava are considerably slowed down by biological characteristics of the crop, which includes a long growth cycle, a heterozygous genetic background and a poor knowledge of the organization of crop diversity. ...

Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) is a tough and productive survival crop of smallholder farmers in the tropics. It is often grown where other crops fail. Research can make important contribution to food security and economic development in cassava-growing areas. This can be enhanced through in-...
