Cassava is a low-priority crop in agricultural development policies in most L.A. countries, limiting active research and extension activities. A description is given of CIAT-generated low- cost technology that can increase yields. This package consists of the visual selection of planting material...
Methods of vegetative reproduction are discussed using the results obtained with cassava and potato. Results of clone cleaning by heat therapy and in vitro meristem culture are given. Two methods for rapid cassava multiplication are proposed: by sprouts from cuttings and single leaf cuttings, whi...
