The storage roots of cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) suffer from a rapid post-harvest deterioration that is a major constraint to their increased exploitation. In many ways this deterioration resembles wound responses in other better studied plant systems, though it appears to lack an adequate...

Conservation dynamics of roots and tuber crops under on-farm management.
Modern breeding of root and tuber staple food crops is the most practical strategy to address the challenges of small holding farmers in developing nations. The rapid advance of genomics technologies can enable breeders to design cost effective and efficient breeding strategies by exploiting the ...

The response of yam (Dioscorea) cultivars to artificial and natural infections with minisett rot pathogens was investigated. None of the 20 yam cultivars were resistant to Sclerotium rolfsii [Corticium rolfsii] or Trichoderma longibrachyatum. Cultivars TDa 84/093, 85/236, 85/257, TDr 608, 745, 81...

Fifty-five samples of diseased cassava (Manihot esculenta) crowns and shoots and discoloured chips were collected from Benin and Cameroon, Africa. Pieces of infected tissue were cultured on agar and incubated for a week. Over 36% of fungal isolates were Fusarium spp. Of the Fusarium isolates, 55%...
