Diallel analysis of early storage root yield and disease resistance traits in cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz)
2014-10-01
Abstract excerpt
Little progress has been made in determining the combining ability and gene action controlling early storage root yield (SRY) and disease resistance traits in the Ugandan cassava germplasm.
