Unlocking the potential of tropical root crop biotechnology in east Africa by establishing a genetic transformation platform for local farmerpreferred cassava cultivars
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...

Biotechnology has opened unprecedented avenues for exploring biological systems. Transgenics is one of the key techniques particularly useful for the genetic improvement of crops that are not amenable
to conventional breeding, such as those that are vegetatively propagated. In IITA, transgenic te...
