Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) is an important root crop worldwide. It exhibits substantial differential genotypic responses to varying environmental conditions, a phenomenon termed genotype × environment interaction (GEI). A significant GEI presents

PLDC‐Net: A Domain‐Specific Base Model for Plant Leaf Disease Classification Domain Adaptation Tasks
ABSTRACT Plant diseases are the cause of heavy losses of crop production and, therefore, a big contributor to food shortages. Identifying these diseases as early as possible is important to limit the negative effects that these diseases have on the yields, as slow response time will lead to the spread of diseases and further loss.

Cassava remains Sub-Saharan Africa’s second most crucial staple food crop after maize. However, production of sufficient yields is hampered by pests and diseases. In particular, the whitefly (Bemisia tabaci) has the potential to reduce expected yields by

ABSTRACT Tomato yellow leaf curl China virus (TYLCCNV) is a major agricultural pathogen and primary model for circular single‐stranded DNA (cssDNA) virus studies. The infectious clones of TYLCCNV and other cssDNA viruses are usually constructed as two tandem copies of the small viral genomes in Agrobacterium‐mediated T‐DNA vectors.

Harnessing genomic resources for passion fruit improvement: Progress and prospects
Abstract Passion fruit (Passiflora edulis) is a highly nutritious horticultural crop cultivated widely across tropical and subtropical regions. Despite decades of breeding efforts that have led to the release of a few high‐yielding cultivars, on‐farm productivity remains suboptimal, and several existing cultivars are showing signs of declining vigor ...

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..

Plant pathogen profiling with the EpiPvr package
Abstract This study introduces a flexible framework for epidemiological profiling of insect‐borne plant pathogens (IBPPs), utilising readily available experimental data. The framework is applicable to most IBPPs transmitted by insects feeding on plant veins, with particular relevance to whitefly‐borne viruses that impact cassava production in sub ...

Surveillance and distribution of the emergent Sri Lankan cassava mosaic virus in China
Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) is a major staple food crop for more than a billion people in the world. Cassava mosaic virus (CMV), belonging to the Geminiviridae family, is a primary threat to cassava production.
