Pest Risk Analysis for Prodiplosis longifila for SSA countries
Pest Risk Analysis (PRA) includes three stages: initiation, pest risk assessment and pest risk
management. Initiating the PRA process involves identifying pests and pathways of concern
and defining the PRA area. Pest risk ...
Selecting Partial Inbred Clones and Exploring Heterosis in Cassava Report
CIAT started exploring the heterosis in cassava and made selfing of 23 clones, of which 20 clones have high dry matter, and three have high beta-carotene to determine the heterotic pattern, either identifying or creating ...
Iron, Vitamin C, Phenolic and Phytic acid Concentration of Biofortified Potatoes as Affected by Location
The effect of growing location on concentrations of iron, zinc, vitamin C, phenolics, phytic acid and glycoalkaloids of six iron biofortified potato clones and two potato varieties was determined.
Significant variation ...
Improved flower inducing technology for producing both hybrid and self-pollinated seeds
In 2021 we will assess the effect of different dosages of BA on the feminization of male flowers. This is important for producing hybrid or self-pollinated seeds.
Doubled Haploids for Faster and More Efficient Breeding in Cassava
To produce haploids the use of inducer lines increases the frequency of success. This is the most practical and fastest way to generate homozygous parental breeding lines to create true F1s where hybrid vigor can be clearly ...
Assessment of the validity of Scaling Readiness theory of change in the design, implementation and monitoring of scaling strategies in two CGIAR-RTB funded scaling projects
Between early 2019 and end of 2020 two CGIAR-RTB funded scaling projects employed the Scaling Readiness approach to guide their overall scaling activities and decisions. Scaling approach for flash drying of cassava starch ...
