Chromosome-level genome assemblies of Thai cassava ecotypes (Manihot esculenta & Manihot glaziovii). [PDF]

Sci Data
Abstract Cassava is a vital staple crop, yet genomic resources for diverse ecotypes, particularly from key regions, remain limited. To address this, we generated high-quality genome assemblies for nine Thai M. esculenta cultivars and one wild relative, Manihot glaziovii.

Cross-amplification and characterization of microsatellite markers in species of Manihot Mill. (Euphorbiaceae) endemic to the Brazilian Cerrado [PDF]

Acta Botânica Brasílica, 2021
The genus Manihot Mill. contains about 120 species of which about 104 occur in Brazil. We tested the cross-amplification of ten microsatellite markers developed for Manihot esculenta in 15 species of Manihot endemic to the Brazilian Cerrado.
