      Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) production is currently under threat from cassava brown streak disease (CBSD), a disease that is among the seven most serious obstacles to world’s food security. Three issues are ...

    • Genetic Relationships of Cassava Genotypes That are Susceptible or Tolerant to Cassava Brown Streak Disease in Uganda 

      Abaca, Alex; Kawuki, Robert; Tukamuhabwa, Phenihas; Baguma, Yona; Pariyo, Anthony; Alicai, Titus; Omongo, C. Christopher; Abidrabo, Phillips; Katono, Kasifa; Bua, Anton (Journal of Agricultural Science, 2013)
      A total of 99 cassava genotypes whose field reaction to cassava brown streak disease (CBSD) was known, were assayed with 30 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers to establish their genetic parallels. Two categories of CBSD ...

    • A novel seed treatment-based multiplication approach for cassava planting material 

      Jorge de Oliveira, Eder; Santos de Oliveira, Saulo Alves; Otto, Caroline; Alicai, Titus; Xavier de Freitas, Juan Paulo; Marmolejo Cortes, Diego Fernando; Pariyo, Anthony; Liri, Charles; Adiga, Gerald; Balmer, Andrea; Klauser, Dominik; Robinson, Mike (PLoS ONE, 2020)
      Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) is an important food security crop in many parts of the developing world. The crop’s high yield potential and multitude of uses–both for nutrition and processing–render cassava a promising ...

    • Spatial dynamics and control of a crop pathogen with mixed-mode transmission
