Computational models to improve surveillance for cassava brown streak disease and minimize yield loss.

PLoS Computational Biology, 2020
Cassava brown streak disease (CBSD) is a rapidly spreading viral disease that affects a major food security crop in sub-Saharan Africa. Currently, there are several proposed management interventions to minimize loss in infected fields.

Cassava brown streak

, 2016
Cassava 'brown streak' disease (CBSD) is an economically important constraint in important cassava-growing areas of East, Central and Southern Africa. In addition to causing a dry necrotic rot in the tuberous roots of infected plants, which can render ...

Training population optimization for prediction of cassava brown streak disease resistance in west African clones [PDF]

, 2019
Cassava production in the central, southern and eastern parts of Africa is under threat by cassava brown streak virus (CBSV). Yield losses of up to 100% occur in cases of severe infections of edible roots.

Why has permanent control of cassava brown streak disease in Sub-Saharan Africa remained a dream since the 1930s?

, 2021
Effective control of ipomoviruses that cause cassava brown streak disease (CBSD) in Africa has remained problematic despite eight remarkable decades (1930-2021) of research efforts.

Diversity, distribution and effects on cassava cultivars of Cassava Brown Streak Viruses in Malawi

, 2016
Cassava brown streak disease (CBSD) has emerged as a major threat to cassava ( Manihot esculenta ) in eastern and southern Africa. CBSD was first reported in Malawi in the 1950s, but little data on the distribution and epidemiology of the disease are ...
