Genome-wide association mapping and genomic prediction unravels CBSD resistance in a <i>Manihot esculenta</i> breeding population
2017-07-02
Abstract excerpt
Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz), a key carbohydrate dietary source for millions of people in Africa, faces severe yield loses due to two viral diseases: cassava brown streak disease (CBSD) and cassava mosaic disease (CMD). The completion of the cassava genome sequence and the whole genome marker profiling of clones from African breeding programs ( www.nextgencassava.org ) provides cassava breeders the opportu...
