Breeding cassava for resistance to cassava mosaic disease
Euphytica, 1980Cassava mosaic disease (CMD) is one of the most serious and widespread diseases throughout cassava growing areas in Africa, causing yield reductions of up to 90%. Early research on breeding of cassava (Manihot esculentaCrantz) for resistance to CMD in Africa is reviewed. Changes in population size and in activity of the white-fly vector to CMD (Bemisia

STUDIES OF THE MOSAIC DISEASES OF CASSAVA
Annals of Applied Biology, 1938SUMMARYThe symptoms of mosaic disease in cassava, although generally typical of the mosaic group, show wide variations, due in part to the varietal reaction of the plant, to its stage of development and to the environment. The most important cause of variations however is differences in the strains of the virus, of which we have recognized, through the

Elimination of Cassava Mosaic Disease by Meristem Culture
Phytopathology, 1975The cassava mosaic agent was eliminated from two cultivars of Indian and Nigerian origin by culturing shoot apical meristems on a Murashige and Skoog medium supplemented with benzyladenine (5 × 10⁻⁷ M), naphthaleneacetic acid (10⁻⁶ M) and gibberellic acid (GA3 10⁻⁷ M).

Control of cassava mosaic disease in Kenya
Tropical Pest Management, 1982Abstract Mosaic disease of cassava is one of the most important factors limiting production in East Africa. The disease can be controlled by the use of healthy planting material. Plots of carefully selected, apparently healthy cassava of several cultivars of differing genetic constitution were established and successfully kept free of disease by ...

Cassava is an important food security crop in Sub-Saharan Africa. Two episomal begomovirus-associated sequences, named Sequences Enhancing Geminivirus Symptoms (SEGS1 and SEGS2), were identified in field cassava affected by the devastating cassava mosaic disease (CMD).

THE SPATIOTEMPORAL DYNAMICS OF AFRICAN CASSAVA MOSAIC DISEASE
BIOMAT 2010, 2011African Cassava Mosaic Disease, a vector-borne plant disease, causes massive food shortages throughout sub-Saharan Africa. A system of ordinary differential equations is used to find the equilibrium values of the whitefly vector and the cassava plants it affects. The temporal ODE system is modified to incorporate the spatial dynamic.

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. In this study, we first identified the cassava mosaic geminiviruses (CMGs) involved in CMD in Madagascar and their associated epidemiological characteristics from ...
