Advances in Genetic Analysis and Breeding of Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz): A Review

Plants, 2022
Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) is the sixth most important food crop and consumed by 800 million people worldwide. In Africa, cassava is the second most important food crop after maize and Africa is the worlds’ largest producer. Though cassava is not

Research on cassava disease classification using the multi-scale fusion model based on EfficientNet and attention mechanism

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Cassava disease is one of the leading causes to the serious decline of cassava yield. Because it is difficult to identify the characteristics of cassava disease, if not professional cassava growers, it will be prone to misjudgment. In order to strengthen

Expansion and impact of cassava brown streak and cassava mosaic diseases in Africa: A review

Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, 2022
Africa produces over half of global cassava; however, the continent's average yield is below the potential yields achieved under experimental conditions. Many factors contributing to low yield include lack of quality varieties, poor soils, limited access

Deep learning for detection cassava leaf disease

Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2021
In this research, an intelligent system for detecting cassava leaf disease has been developed by utilizing the MobileNetV2 deep learning model and displaying it using a python graphical user interface (GUI).

Adoption and Promotion of Resilient Crops for Climate Risk Mitigation and Import Substitution: A Case Analysis of Cassava for South African Agriculture

Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, 2021
Cassava is an important starchy root crop grown globally in tropical and subtropical regions. The ability of cassava to withstand difficult growing conditions and long-term storability underground makes it a resilient crop, contributing to food security.

MeRAV5 promotes drought stress resistance in cassava by modulating hydrogen peroxide and lignin accumulation.

The Plant Journal, 2021
Cassava, an important food and energy crop, is relatively more resistant to drought stress than other crops. However, the molecular mechanism underlying this resistance remains elusive.

Pulsed electric fields (PEF) treatment to enhance starch 3D printing application: Effect on structure, properties, and functionality of wheat and cassava starches

, 2021
This work evaluated the impact of PEF on the structure, properties, and functionality of wheat and cassava starches focusing on 3D printing application. Aqueous starch suspensions were PEF-treated using three different combinations of field strength and ...

Mitochondrial Genetic Diversity of Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) Associated with Cassava in Lao PDR

Insects, 2022
Cassava Mosaic Disease (CMD) caused by Sri Lankan cassava mosaic virus (SLCMV), has rapidly spread in Southeast Asia (SEA) since 2016. Recently it has been documented in Lao PDR. Previous reports have identified whitefly species of B. tabaci as potential
