Distribution of Bemisia tabaci in different agro-ecological regions in Uganda and the threat of vector-borne pandemics into new cassava growing areas

open access: yesFrontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, 2023
Previous studies in sub-Saharan Africa have showed the spread of cassava mosaic disease (CMD) and cassava brown streak disease (CBSD) pandemics into different cassava growing regions by high Bemisia tabaci populations.

Commodity risk assessment of Petunia spp. and Calibrachoa spp. unrooted cuttings from Uganda

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract The European Commission requested the EFSA Panel on Plant Health to evaluate the likelihood of pest freedom at entry in the EU, including both regulated and non‐regulated pests, potentially associated with unrooted cuttings of the genera Petunia and Calibrachoa produced under physical isolation in Uganda.

Epidemiological analysis of Cassava Mosaic and Brown Streak Diseases, and Bemisia tabaci in the Comoros Islands [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
A comprehensive assessment of cassava brown streak disease (CBSD) and cassava mosaic disease (CMD) was carried out in Comoros where cassava yield (5.7 t/ha) is significantly below the African average (8.6 t/ha) largely due to virus diseases. Observations

Progress and Impacts of “Omics” Technologies in Understanding the Drought Response in Cassava: Adoption for Food Security in Africa

open access: yesPlant-Environment Interactions, Volume 6, Issue 6, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Cassava is a crucial staple crop in Africa, but its productivity is increasingly threatened by the worsening impacts of drought caused by climate change. To address this challenge, an integration of “omics” and genome editing technologies has emerged as indispensable tools for understanding the complex mechanisms that govern cassava's response

The Symptom and Genetic Diversity of Cassava Brown Streak Viruses Infecting Cassava in East Africa

open access: yesAdvances in Virology, 2012
The genetic and symptom diversity of six virus isolates causing cassava brown streak disease (CBSD) in the endemic (Kenya, Mozambique, and Tanzania) and the recently affected epidemic areas (Uganda) of eastern Africa was studied.

miR398‐Dirigent Module Negatively Regulates Cassava Resistance to Cassava Common Mosaic Virus by Affecting the Cell Wall Lignification and Thickness

open access: yesMolecular Plant Pathology, Volume 26, Issue 10, October 2025.
miR398‐Dirigent module reduces cell wall lignification in cassava, weakening resistance to cassava common mosaic virus. Overexpressing Dir increases cell wall lignification and enhances resistance. ABSTRACT Studies have demonstrated microRNA398 (miR398) hyperaccumulation in plant species infected with viruses; however, its role in a viral context ...

Global Cassava Germplasm Resources: Industrial and Technological Development

open access: yesFood and Energy Security, Volume 14, Issue 5, September/October 2025.
ABSTRACT The main cassava‐producing regions include Africa, South America, Southeast Asia, and China. Due to significant differences in natural environments, industrial backgrounds, and technological resources for germplasm development across these regions, the utilization of cassava germplasm resources shows regional variation.
