Selective signatures and high genome-wide diversity in traditional Brazilian manioc (Manihot esculenta Crantz) varieties [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2022
Knowledge about genetic diversity is essential to promote effective use and conservation of crops, because it enables farmers to adapt their crops to specific needs and is the raw material for breeding. Manioc (Manihot esculenta ssp. esculenta) is one of

Convergent adaptations: bitter manioc cultivation systems in fertile anthropogenic dark earths and floodplain soils in Central Amazonia. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Shifting cultivation in the humid tropics is incredibly diverse, yet research tends to focus on one type: long-fallow shifting cultivation. While it is a typical adaptation to the highly-weathered nutrient-poor soils of the Amazonian terra firme, fertile

A population genomics appraisal suggests independent dispersals for bitter and sweet manioc in Brazilian Amazonia

Evolutionary Applications, 2020
Amazonia is a major world centre of plant domestication, but the genetics of domestication remains unclear for most Amazonian crops. Manioc (Manihot esculenta) is the most important staple food crop that originated in this region.

Potential use of other starch sources in the treatment of glycogen storage disease type Ia – an in vitro study [PDF]

Orphanet Journal of Rare Diseases
Background Glycogen storage disease type Ia (GSD-Ia) is one of the most common hepatic GSD. Its treatment mainly consists of a diet including a high intake of slow-digestion carbohydrates such as raw cornstarch and the restriction of simple sugars.

High genetic diversity among and within bitter manioc varieties cultivated in different soil types in Central Amazonia

Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2017
Although manioc is well adapted to nutrient-poor Oxisols of Amazonia, ethnobotanical observations show that bitter manioc is also frequently cultivated in the highly fertile soils of the floodplains and Amazonian dark earths (ADE) along the middle ...

Le manioc dans l'alimentation du porc. II. Digestiblité du manioc sous différentes présentations

Revue d’Elevage et de Médecine Vétérinaire des Pays Tropicaux, 1973
L'amidon du manioc est très hautement digestible, quelle que soit sa présentation (frais, cuit, sec, ensilé). La consommation de manioc ensilé entraîne une diminution de l'utilisation digestive des matières minérales.

Teores de carbamato de etila em aguardentes de cana e mandioca: parte II Contents of ethyl carbamate in sugar cane and manioc spirits: part II [PDF]

Química Nova, 2009
Herein, we report the concentration of ethyl carbamate (EC) and copper in 380 samples of sugar-cane spirit and 45 samples of manioc spirit as determined by GC-MS and FAAS respectively. The cyanide content determined spectrophotometrically is reported for

Cassava/Yuca/Manioc

Humanities
Cassava/Yuca/Manioc: This staple of Indigenous Caribbean diets has gone from being decried for its danger and denigrated for its supposed inferiority to wheat by the early colonists, to being among the few foods that nourished slaves, to creolizing into ...

Transformation alimentaire du manioc [PDF]

, 1995
Cet ouvrage rassemble 56 contributions qui auraient dû être présentées au séminaire-atelier international sur la transformation alimentaire du manioc initialement prévu en novembre 1993 à Brazzaville (Congo). Ce séminaire n'a pas pu avoir lieu. Les articles retenus sont très diversifiés tant par leur provenance que par leur objet de recherche.

Politique d’import-substitution au blé et compétitivité des farines panifiables à base de manioc, banane plantain et patate douce au Cameroun

Cahiers Agricultures, 2023
Cette étude a pour objectif de documenter le renouvellement d’une politique alimentaire d’import-substitution au Cameroun. Elle interroge en quoi la production de farines panifiables à partir de productions vivrières locales (manioc, banane plantain ...
