Author(s): FUKUDA, W. M. G.; SANTOS, V. da S. The cassava plant is native to Brazil, where have already been catalogued more than 4000 accessions. This wide genetic diversity has been kept in working collections and in active germplasm banks spre... ... |
Author(s): OLIVEIRA, E. J. de; OLIVEIRA, S. A. S. de; VILAS BOAS, S. A.; HOHENFELD, C. S.; SANTOS, V. da S. The cassava root rot disease (CRRD) severely affects productivity in several countries. The objective of this study was to estimate genetic parameters and to identify multiple resistance sources again... ... |
Author(s): OLIVEIRA, L. A. de; KIMURA, M.; SANTOS, V. da S.; OLIVEIRA, E. J. de; SANTOS, A. de O.; SOUSA, M. R.; AMORIM, T. da S.; FIUZA, A. U. R. Cassava is a drought-tolerant, staple food crop grown in tropical and subtropical areas where many people are afflicted with undernutrition, making it a potentially valuable food source for developing... ... |
Author(s): SILVA, L. de J. de S.; MENEGHETTI, G. A.; PINHEIRO, J. O. C.; GUIMARAES, R. dos R. Cassava is the main source of energy in the Amazonian diet, hence its social importance. The low productivity and the socioeconomic importance of the crop led Embrapa western Amazon to develop a set o... ... |

The objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of drought on genetic parameters and breeding values of cassava. The experiments were carried out in a completely randomized block design with thr... ... |
Author(s): JALA, I. M.; SILVA, C. C. da; SAMPAIO FILHO, J. S.; OLIVEIRA, E. J. de; NÓBREGA, R. S. A. In Brazil, there is already a recommendation for the production of cassava seed-cuttings for the production of seedlings originated from micropropagation, which may be extended for the production of s... ... |
Author(s): OLIVEIRA, E. J. de; AUD, F. F.; MORALES, C. F. G.; SANTOS, V. da S.; KOTWISKI, F.; V. COSTA The knowledge of the phenotypic variation of cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) germplasm allows estimating the genetic variability to support the selection of contrasting genitors. Therefore, the aim... ... |
