Cassava is a major staple that supplies more than 50% of daily energy to more than 200 million persons in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Cassava roots are known to be low in micronutrients such as vitamin A, iron, and zinc. Micronutrient deficiencies threaten the lives of millions of poor households a...

Although water is a renewable resource, its supply is not inexhaustible. It is unlikely that sufficient new water resources will be found to meet the projected increase in demand for water for food production, as existing water resources are already under pressure. It is vital, therefore, that ex...

This workshop indicated that significant progress has recently been made, leading to the current thinking that three forms of banana streak virus (BSV) exist. It also showed that many questions remain to be answered and that a significant research effort has to be undertaken concerning transmissi...
