An Alarming Eastward Front of Cassava Mosaic Disease in Development in West Africa [PDF]
Begomoviruses are a major threat to cassava production in Africa. Indeed, during the 1990s, the emergence of a recombinant begomovirus (East African cassava mosaic virus-Uganda, EACMV-Ug) resulted in crop devastation and severe famine in Uganda. In 2023,

Metabolomic Analysis of Cassava Cultivars in Response to Sri Lankan Cassava Mosaic Virus Infection by Viruliferous Whiteflies [PDF]
Cassava mosaic disease, caused by Cassava mosaic begomoviruses in the family Geminiviridae, poses a major threat to cassava production, with Sri Lankan cassava mosaic virus (SLCMV) being the dominant strain in Southeast Asia.

Marker-assisted selection complements phenotypic screening at seedling stage to identify cassava mosaic disease-resistant genotypes in African cassava populations [PDF]
Cassava mosaic disease (CMD) is a serious threat to cassava production in sub-Saharan Africa. The use of genomic-assisted selection at the seedling trial stage would help to reduce the time for release, breeding cost, and resources used, hence increase ...

Gradual Emergence of East African cassava mosaic Cameroon virus in Cassava Farms in Côte d’Ivoire
Cassava mosaic disease (CMD) and cassava brown streak disease (CBSD) are endemic threats to cassava production, causing significant yield losses. They are caused respectively by begomoviruses and ipomoviruses that are transmitted by whiteflies and ...

Cassava mosaic disease in Burkina Faso: epidemiological aspects and disease management perspectives [PDF]
Cassava Mosaic Disease (CMD) is the main biotic constraint to cassava production in West Africa. In Burkina Faso, efforts are underway to manage it sustainably using classical surveillance, including field monitoring and laboratory diagnosis.

Identification of peptidome-based biomarkers of cassava mosaic disease resistance in different cassava varieties [PDF]
Cassava, a major economic crop in Thailand, yielded over 3 million USD in exports in 2023. However, its production has been declining since 2021 due to cassava mosaic disease (CMD) outbreaks, which affect cassava plantations. CMD infections have recently increased due to the scarcity of healthy stems and CMD-resistant varieties, the latter being key to

The resistance/susceptibility of 5 cassava cultivars from Ghana to infectious clones of two cassava mosaic viruses (ACMV-[CM] and EACMV/ACMV-[CM]) was investigated in this study. Plantlets ofcassava cultivars were obtained using nodal cuttings initiated from tissue culture. These cassava cultivars were challenged with both DNA A and B components of the
