SEGS-1 a cassava genomic sequence increases the severity of African cassava mosaic virus infection in Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Cassava is a major crop in Sub-Saharan Africa, where it is grown primarily by smallholder farmers. Cassava production is constrained by Cassava mosaic disease (CMD), which is caused by a complex of cassava mosaic begomoviruses (CMBs).

RNA silencing of South African cassava mosaic virus in transgenic cassava expressing AC1/AC4 hp- RNA induces tolerance [PDF]

Biotechnology Reports, 2019
Cassava mosaic disease (CMD), caused by geminiviruses, is a major hurdle to cassava production. Due to the heterozygous nature of cassava, breeding for virus resistance is difficult, but cassava has been shown to be a good candidate for genetic ...

Development of a triple antibody sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for cassava mosaic disease detection using a monoclonal antibody to Sri Lankan cassava mosaic virus [PDF]

Virology Journal, 2021
Background Cassava mosaic disease (CMD) is one of the most devastating viral diseases for cassava production in Africa and Asia. Accurate yet affordable diagnostics are one of the fundamental tools supporting successful CMD management, especially in ...

Response of cassava cultivars to African cassava mosaic virus infection across a range of inoculum doses and plant ages. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2019
Cassava production in Africa is constrained by cassava mosaic disease (CMD) that is caused by the Cassava mosaic virus (CMV). The aim of this study was to evaluate the responses of a range of commonly cultivated West African cassava cultivars to varying ...

Emergence of a Latent Indian Cassava Mosaic Virus from Cassava Which Recovered from Infection by a Non-Persistent Sri Lankan Cassava Mosaic Virus [PDF]

Viruses, 2016
The major threat for cassava cultivation on the Indian subcontinent is cassava mosaic disease (CMD) caused by cassava mosaic geminiviruses which are bipartite begomoviruses with DNA A and DNA B components.

Emergence of begomoviruses and DNA satellites associated with weeds and intercrops: a potential threat to sustainable production of cassava in Côte d’Ivoire [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science
Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) plays a significant role in the livelihoods of people in Africa, particularly in Côte d’Ivoire. However, its production is threatened by begomoviruses which cause huge yield losses.
