Improving root characterisation for genomic prediction in cassava
2019-07-09
Abstract excerpt
Cassava is widely cultivated due to its high drought tolerance and high carbohydrate-containing storage roots. The lack of uniformity and irregular shape of storage roots within and between genotypes poses significant constraints on harvesting and post-harvest processing. Routine assessment of storage root size and shape in breeding plots relies on visual scores. Here, we phenotyped the Genetic gain and offspring...
