Starch quality traits of improved provitamin A cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz)
Heliyon, 2019 Provitamin A cassava clones were analysed for starch yield and critical starch quality attributes, to understand possible applications in the food industry. Total carotenoids content in the test clones ranged from 0.03-11.94 μg g-1 of fresh root.

Ethanol fermentation of cassava starch pretreated with alkali [PDF]
Biotechnology and Bioengineering, 1986 In view of the current industrial process for the conventional ethanol fermentation, in which raw starch materials are heated at 120 degrees C for 2 h, conditions for an alternative process were set: an overall time from saccharification to ethanol fermentation of within 3-4 days, an operation temperature of below 60 degrees C, an ethanol yield of over

Genetic modification of cassava for enhanced starch production [PDF]
Plant Biotechnology Journal, 2006 SummaryTo date, transgenic approaches to biofortify subsistence crops have been rather limited. This is particularly true for the starchy root crop cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz). Cassava has one of the highest rates of CO2 fixation and sucrose synthesis for any C3 plant, but rarely reaches its yield potentials in the field.
