Impact of host plant species and whitefly species on feeding behavior of Bemisia tabaci [PDF]
Whiteflies of the Bemisia tabaci species complex are economically important pests of cassava. In Africa, they cause greatest damage through vectoring viruses responsible for cassava mosaic disease and cassava brown streak disease. Several cryptic species

Measurement of Dry Matter and Starch in Modern Cassava Genotypes during Long Harvest Cycles
Starch (ST) is the main determinant of cassava root industrial quality and is routinely quantified using the specific gravity (SG) method, which is simple but lacks precision. This study aimed to estimate the dry matter (DM) and ST content in nine modern
