Cassava common mosaic disease (CCMD) can cause root yield losses of approximately 30% (Venturini et al. 2016) in cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) and it has already been reported in Brazil, Colombia, Paraguay, and Argentina (Calvert et al. 2012; Di Feo

The effect of cassava mosaic disease on the genetic diversity of cassava in Uganda
Cassava (Manihot esculenta) is a tropical crop that is grown in Africa, Latin America and Southeast Asia. Cassava was introduced from Latin America into West and East Africa at two independent events. In Uganda a serious threat to cassava's survival is the cassava mosaic disease (CMD).

Abstract Sugarcane (Saccharum spp. hybrids), the source of ∼80% of the worlds sugar, has experienced a plateau in genetic improvement over recent decades. This stagnation is largely due to the crop's complex polyploid genome and long breeding cycles, which limit the efficiency of traditional selection methods.

Cassava mosaic virus disease pandemic [PDF]
Cassava mosaic virus disease (CMD) is so prevalent in some countries that it is regarded as a normal feature of cassava plants; little attempt is made to control the disease and impaired, sub-standard yields are accepted as normal. There are no..

Focus on DnaJ protein research from Arabidopsis to crop improvement
Abstract DnaJ proteins (Hsp40s) are essential components of the cellular proteostasis network, functioning as molecular co‐chaperones that regulate protein folding, stability, and stress‐responsive homeostasis in plants. Beyond their classical role as Hsp70 partners, accumulating evidence demonstrates that DnaJ proteins participate in diverse ...

Adaptive Responses of Tropical Crops: A Multi‐Scale Omics Integrated Perspective
Tropical crops integrate genomic, morphological, physiological, and ecological adaptations to thrive under extreme and variable environments. This review highlights how natural selection, domestication, and breeding shape stress resilience, resource‐use strategies, and productivity in sugarcane, banana, cassava, rubber and oil palm, offering new routes

Response of Local Cassava Varieties in Uganda to Cassava Mosaic Virus Disease
Cassava mosaic disease (CMD) resistant varieties have been used to manage CMD in Uganda. In spite the availability of a number of CMD resistant cultivars, several local landraces are continually grown in Uganda because they possess certain desirable traits, which may not have been fully met by the resistant varieties.
