Sustainable rapid production of disease-free cassava planting material
To inject disease free planting material to the cassava growers and also for rapid dissemination of improved variety(s) CIAT cassava program has established practicable multiplication innovations in Laos and Cambodia during ...
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 ...
Cassava Waxing Technology Use, Marketing, Consumption and Actors' Roles along the Value Chain In Uganda (12660)
Increasing availability, utilization, and incomes from cassava production and marketing by increasing the period during which fresh roots can be marketed while retaining the desired quality
Multilocation Evaluation Trials In Uganda and Tanzania
These results report show that our breeding program is making very good progress in developing new varieties that are better than the currently grown popular officially released varieties. This will ensure that new varieties ...
Editing Cassava Sweet genes for Resistance to Xanthomonas Report
The sweet genes are transporters and a source of sucrose for plants, which during infection by bacteria such as Xanthomonas are over-expressed, making them an important factor in the infection and colonization of this type ...
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 ...
Community of Practice Partnership (COPP) for the Application of Genomic-assisted Cassava Breeding - 2020
Technology innovations are key to increase cassava production on the continent. Genomics has a central role in crop improvement and is increasingly being used owing to the decrease in cost of technologies. Analysis of plant ...
