Various foods associated with cassava were tested for their effect on the development, fecundity and longevity of Euseius fustis, the most common phytoseiid species found on cassava in Africa. Euseius Justis developed successfully to adulthood on the spider mite prey species Mononychellus tanajoa...

Thirty isolates of Colletotrichum gloeosporioides f. sp. manihotis causal organism of cassava anthracnose disease (CAD), were collected from cankers on cassava stems in cassava-growing zones of Nigeria. Using a pathogenicity test, five virulent isolates (05FCN, 10FCN, 12FCN, 18FCN and 26FCN) were...

Leaf and root (tuber) nutrient uptake patterns of cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) alley-cropped with gliricidia (Gliricidia sepium), leucaena (Leucaena leucocephala), and senna [(Senna (syn. Cassia) siamea] as influenced by vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal (VAM) inoculation in a degraded Alfis...

Field trials were carried out in M'Vuazi, Bas Zaire, to test the response of groundnuts (cv P43), planted sole or intercropped with cassava (cv Kinuani), to lime application. Groundnuts responded significantly to low rates of lime (250-500 kg ha-1). Maximum cost, benefit ratio of 1:7 was obtained...

The effect of temperature, humidity and photoperiod on the development of Neozygites cf. floridana (Weiser and Muma) in the cassava green mite, Mononychellus tanajoa (Bondar) was studied in the laboratory. Dead infected mites began to appear 2.5 days after inoculation. At 33 and 28°C peak mortali...

Primary data collected over a wide area in Africa show that average cassava root yield is not declining as the population increases because the land is being cultivated more intensively in response to demographic pressures. Although fallow periods are becoming shorter, organic manuring, improved ...

Reproductive responses of Neoseiulus (= Amblyseius) idaeus Denmark and Muma ovipositing females were measured under three dietary regimes consisting of Mononychellus tanajoa (Bondar) or Oligonychus gossypii (Zacher) combined with specific periods (24, 48, 72, and 96 h) of starvation or periods of...

In uninfested fields, 80 cassava tips were artificially infested with 0, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, or 64 third instars, and 20 or 100 eggs of cassava mealybug, Phenacoccus manihoti Matile‐Ferrero (Hom., Pseudococcidae). Another 80 uninfested tips served as a control. Tips were arranged in a circle of 2...

Surveys of the incidence of African cassava mosaic disease (ACMD) and its whitefly vector, Bernisiu tabaci, were made at three-month intervals in 1992 and 1993 along two South-North transects. One was in central and the other in eastern Uganda. ACMD incidence was high within the northern localiti...
