Abstract excerpt
Field evaluation of six cassava genotypes for resistance to root rot disease was compared with three rapid laboratory methods (whole root inoculation, root slice inoculation, and stem inoculation) for resistance screening. Both the field evaluation and the three laboratory methods separated the varieties into resistant and susceptible groups. Genotypes 30572 and 91/02324 were resistant while 92/0247, 92/0057 and...
