We investigated the fungal entomopathogens Beauveria bassiana and Metarhizium anisopliae to determine if endophytic colonization could be achieved in cassava. An inoculation method based on drenching the soil around cassava stem cuttings using conidial suspensions resulted in endophytic colonizat...

Few studies have addressed the relationship between genetic diversity and provision of ecosystem services in agroecosystems. In this review, we argue that the contribution of biological diversity to ecosystem functioning in agricultural production systems is variable, but can be substantial, and ...

The high demand for good quality planting materials of improved cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) cultivars by the farmers in sub-Saharan Africa are not fully met in a timely manner. Perishability, slow multiplication rate and bulkiness of planting materials, weak definition of multiplication re...

The scientific community has recognized the importance of integrating farmer’s perceptions and knowledge (FPK) for the development of sustainable pest and disease management strategies. However, the knowledge gap between indigenous and scientific knowledge still contributes to misidentification o...

En América Latina el frijol es afectado por no menos de 70 especies de insectos. De éstos, apenas unos 12 pueden ser clasificados como de importancia económica. Varios programas nacionales y el CIAT han identificado la resistencia varietal como un método de control importante que, como se sabe, c...

En el Perú, la “pulguilla de la papa”, Epitrix yanazara Bechyné se presenta como uno de los problemas potenciales de plagas en el cultivo de papa en ciertas localidades de la región andina y cuando no se utilizan aplicaciones de insecticidas para el control del gorgojo de los Andes. Esta plaga s...
