Cassava production in Africa has increased by 12.5% between 1988 and 1990 with Nigeria becoming the largest cassava producer in the world. Almost all of the African cassava production is destined for human consumption. The consumption of cassava is sometimes associated with toxicity due to its cy...

Manihot esculenta Cassava pest problems in Africa have changed dramatically over the last century. Rapidly expanding production and waves of exotic pests have created evolving cassava agroecosystems with changing production constraints. Cassava plant protection activities in Africa began with res...

Manihot esculenta Cyanogenesis, the ability to produce hydrogen cyanide (HCN), is common to over 2000 plant species. In cassava, two cyanogenic glucosides, linamarin and lotaustralin, are produced in the leaves and stored inside vacuoles. Linamarase, an enzyme capable of hydrolyzing the glucoside...

Manihot esculenta.This paper which is based on information collected as part of Collaborative Study of Cassava in Africa (COSCA) provides information on cassava genotypes cultivated in sub-Saharan Africa. It shows that there is a high degree of turnover in the cassava genotypes cultivated. Farmer...

Most cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) improvement programs depend on the range of variability available within the cultigen for breeding varieties adapted to target environments. Efforts by some programs to introduce additional variability from wild Manihot species into cassava have led to impr...

Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) contains cyanogenic glucosides which lead to the release of hydrogen cyanide (HCN) after hydrolysis. A study carried out using six cassava populations revealed that the broad-sense heritability for HCN was relatively low at 34.58 and 32.18 percent in roots and l...

Forty-seven cultivars of cassava in IITA's trials were screened for their reaction to infection by Colletotrichum gloesporiodes f. sp. manihotis in the field. The following parameters were observed: (a) distance of first canker from the soil, (b) total number of cankers per plant, (c) size of can...

The study was carried out to determine the most appropriate time of introducing rice into cassava with the aim of improving the total productivity of the intercrop. The rice variety Rok 16 was introduced into cassava at four different times—planted at the same time with cassava, and then at 2, 4,...
