The efficiency of different selection criteria (root wt., aerial part wt., total wt., no. of roots/plant, HI) applied to segregating populations of cassava crosses was assessed in expt. carried out at the Centro Nacional de Pesquisa de Mandioca e Fruticultura in Cruz das Almas (Bahia, Brazil). Sa...
Se evaluo la eficiencia de diferentes criterios de seleccion (peso de la raiz, peso de la parte aerea, peso total, no de raices/planta, IC) aplicados a poblaciones segregantes de cruzamientos de yuca en expt. realizados en el Centro Nacional de Pesquisa de Mandioca e Fruticultura en Cruz das Alma...

The importance of estimating genetic parameters in cassava in order to produce superior performing cv. is highlighted. Different concepts related to phenotypic variance are discussed; variance is divided into genetic (additive, dominance, epistasis) and environmental. Of the former, additive vari...
Se destaca la importancia de la estimacion de los parametros geneticos en la yuca para producir cv. superiores. Se discuten diferentes conceptos relacionados con la varianza fenotipica, la cual se divide en genetica (genetica aditiva, dominancia, epistasis) y ambiental; de las anteriores, la vari...
Sweet potato has traditionally been viewed as a “poor person’s crop” or “orphan crop,” and it has attracted limited attention compared to other staple crops. However, during the last decade, this perception has changed, and it is widely acknowledged that sweet potato has great potential to contri...

A pilot project was established on Colombia`s Atlantic Coast to promote the agroindustrialization of cassava, based on a simple, low-cost technique developed by CIAT, in which cassava roots are treated directly at the harvest site and preserved in polyethylene bags for up to 3 wk. With this proce...

The cassava team in the department of Meta was strengthened. An outstanding activity was the promotion of the project in different areas of the department; San Juan de Arama was found to have great potential for agroindustrial projects. Successful trials were carried out with fresh cassava conser...
