Bananas (Musa spp.), including dessert and cooking types, are of major importance in the tropics. Due to extremely high levels of sterility, the diversity of cultivated bananas is fixed over long periods of time to the existing genotypes. This pattern puts banana-based agrosystems at risk. Theref...

Cassava flour has potential for multiple applications in the food industry. To develop cassava varieties for targeted household and industrial uses, it is necessary to evaluate the varietal and environmental variations in fresh root yield, cyanide potential and physic chemical properties A. total...

Root rot fungi succession during cassava tuberous root development was
investigated in Ibadan (Derived savanna), Sabongidda-Ora and Onne (Humid
forests) of Nigeria. Two improved cassava varieties (TMS 30572 and TMS 4
(2) 1425) and one local (TME-1) were planted in a randomized complete
block desi...

Cassava mosaic disease (CMD) caused by a group of begomoviruses and transmitted by whitefly vector is a serious disease in all the cassava-growing areas of Africa. Field evaluation with replication was conducted in 2003 and 2004 in three agroecologies in Nigeria to study the response of 40 cassav...

Butana and Kenana calves' performance were evaluated. Effects of type of breed, sex of calf, age of dam, sequence of calving and season of calving on calf birth weights were examined based on records of 256 Butana and 169 Kenana calves. Data from statistical analysis of variances and correlation ...
