Cryopreservation in liquid nitrogen of isolated zygotic embryos and whole seeds of cassava have been studied. A simple method is proposed for utilization in germplasm conservation or other related uses. Very high percentage survival values (ca. 97 percent) of zygotic embryos and whole seeds were ...

The effects of cutting storage on cassava root and branch production as well as on other crop characteristics (wt. loss, percentage of viable cuttings, sprouting 80 days after planting, final stand, no. of seed- cuttings/plant) were studied under field conditions in the banana growing zone of San...

This study used discrete and count data regression models and data collected from 732 farm households in Tanzania to test the effect of participation on a project designed to break this quality “seed” bottleneck (via technology awareness and targeted access to clean planting materials) on: i) the...

Effect of technology awareness and access on the conservation of clean planting materials of vegetatively produced crops: The case of sweetpotato.
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...

A global approach to crop wild relative conservation: securing the gene pool for food and agriculture
The unavailability of good quality seed yams (Dioscorea rotundata Poir) is frequently cited to be responsible for the slow rate of growth or decline in yam production. Current production and storage practices, as well as quality of seed yams in 35 villages of Oyo North, Asaba, Lokoja, and Lafia a...
