Transformation in Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz)

open access: yes, 1993
Cassava is cultivated throughout the tropics for its starchy, tuberous roots. In Africa it plays an important role as a subsistence crop, while in Latin America cassava is also an industrial crop that is processed into more than 300 products. In Asia it is mainly used for the production of animal feed and for exportation. In terms of caloric production

The origin of Manihot esculenta Crantz (Euphorbiaceae) [PDF]

open access: yesGenetic Resources and Crop Evolution, 1994
Contrary to views that cassava (Manihot esculenta) is only known in cultivation an argument is made that wild accessions of the species grow over much of the American neotropics, in Brazil, Bolivia, Peru, Venezuela, Guyana, and Surinam. Three subspecies are recognized. M. esculenta subsp. esculenta is the domesticate and includes all cultivars known in

Case of escape in cassava, Manihot esculenta Crantz

open access: yesGenetics and Molecular Research, 2017
Two cassava escapes where collected from cultivated fields near natural habitat in Bolivia. They are described morphologically and analyzed cytogenetically in this study. It is suggested that they are the product of backcrosses of cassava interspecific hybrids with the cultigen itself, and that selective conditions have developed in which certain forms

Recent advances in improving yield and immunity through transcription factor engineering

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Recent advances have demonstrated that modulating transcription factors can help balance growth and immunity, which is critical to achieving high yield and disease resistance in crops. This review provides a perspective on how specific transcription factors can be engineered to enhance growth and immunity simultaneously. ABSTRACT Transcription factors (
