Cassava yield loss in farmer fields was mainly caused by low soil fertility and suboptimal management practices in two provinces of the Democratic Republic of Congo [PDF]

, 2017
Article purchasedA better understanding of the factors that contribute to low cassava yields in farmers’ fields is required to guide the formulation of cassava intensification programs. Using a boundary line approach, we analysed the contribution of soil

Cassava mosaic disease in Madagascar: complex epidemiology and evolutionary dynamics of cassava mosaic geminiviruses

, 2016
BACKGROUND and OBJECTIVES Cassava is the staple food for hundreds of millions of people in Africa but its cultivation is seriously constrained by cassava mosaic disease (CMD) in Madagascar and in Africa in general. We have undertaken (1) to identify the cassava mosaic geminiviruses (CMGs) involved in CMD in Madagascar and their epidemiological ...

Fractional Dynamics of Cassava Mosaic Disease Model with Recovery Rate Using New Proposed Numerical Scheme

Mathematics
Food security is a basic human right that guarantees humans an adequate amount of nutritious food. However, plant viruses and agricultural pests cause real damage to food sources, leading to negative impacts on meeting the human right of obtaining a ...

Night at the museum: Contribution of small RNA from historical herbarium specimens in the reconstruction of evolutionary histories of geminiviruses [PDF]

, 2019
Emerging infectious diseases of plants, almost half of which are caused by viruses, are recognized as a growing threat to global food security. However, little is known about the evolutionary processes and ecological factors that underlie the emergence ...

Engineering Cassava Mosaic Disease (CMD) Resistance in a Ghanaian Cassava Cultivar

, 2018
Cassava is an important staple crop for an estimated 800 million people worldwide. Cassava production in Africa is constrained by cassava mosaic disease (CMD) and cassava brown streak disease (CBSD). Both viral diseases cause annual yield losses estimated around $2.1 billion.
