Cassava is an important food staple in the coastal provinces of east and southern Africa. However, its production is adversely affected by cassava brown streak virus disease (CBSD). CBSD first reported from Amani, Tanzania in 1936, is now considered to be one of the major biotic constraints to ca...

Genotype (G) by environment (E) interaction (GEI) in cassava was studied using 10 genotypes in a multilocational trial in Uganda at different altitudes for 2 years. The study investigated the magnitude of GEI and diagnosed the underlying causal factors of the G × E pattern. The ana...

The burrowing nematode, Radopholus similis, is a serious threat to sustainable banana production worldwide. A promising method for nematode control is the development and deployment of nematode-resistant banana cultivars. This requires the identification of sources of resistance, which can then b...

Cassava(Manihot esculenta), a root crop originating in Tropical America, has been called Africa’s food insurance but vital as that is, it has the potential to be much more. Already, cassava provides more than half of the dietary calories for over 200 million people in sub-Saharan Africa (about ha...

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...
