Autor: Chiwona-Karltun, L. Brimer, L. Kalenga Saka, J.D. Mhone, A.R. Mkumbira, J. Johansson, L. Bokanga, M. Mahungu, N.M. Rosling, H.

Cassava roots contain cyanogenic glucosides. Malawian farmers classify cultivars into two groups based on the perceived danger of eating raw roots that they associate with bitterness. In the vernacular, cultivars that produce roots with bitter taste are called vyakubaba (bitter), whereas those yi...

Simple sequence repeat marker diversity in cassava landraces: genetic diversity and differentiation in an asexually propagated crop

Autor: Fregene, Martin A. Suarez, M. Mkumbira, J. Kulembeka, H.P. Ndedya, E. Kulaya, A. Mitchel, S. Gullberg, U. Rosling, H. Dixon, Alfred G.O. Dean, R.

Cassava (Manihot esculenta) is an allogamous, vegetatively propagated, Neotropical crop that is also widely grown in tropical Africa and Southeast Asia. To elucidate genetic diversity and differentiation in the crop's primary and secondary centers of diversity, and the forces shaping them, SSR ma...

Low prevalence of ataxic polyneuropathy in a community with high exposure to cyanide from cassava foods

Autor: Oluwole, O.S. Onabolu, O.A. Cotgreave, I.A. Rosling, H. Persson, A. Link, H.

Ataxic polyneuropathy, which occurs in endemic form in an area in southwest Nigeria, is attributed to exposure to cyanide from cassava foods. Exposure to cyanide from cassava is, however, not exclusive to this endemic area. In this study, the occurrence of ataxic polyneuropathy was compared in tw...

Classification of cassava into bitter" and "cool" in Malawi: from farmers perception to characterization by molecular markers"

Autor: Mkumbira, J. Chiwona-Karltun, L. Lagercrantz, U. Mahungu, N.M. Saka, J. Mhone, A. Bokanga, M. Brimer, L. Gullberg, U. Rosling, H.

Cassava roots, a major food in Africa, contain cyanogenic glucosides that may cause toxic effects. Malawian women farmers considered fields of seemingly similar cassava plants to be mixes of both ‘cool’ and ‘bitter’ cultivars. They regard roots from ‘cool’ cultivars as non-toxic. Roots of ‘bitter...
