Performance of Improved Cassava Genotypes for Early Bulking, Disease Resistance, and Culinary Qualities in an Inland Valley Ecosystem

2009-09-01

Abstract excerpt

Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) is commonly grown on residual moisture after rice (Oryza sativa L.) in inland valley swamps (IVS), but not much work has been done to select genotypes that could bulk early, and have high storage root yield in the IVS. Earlier improvement work focused on development of varieties adapted to upland conditions (12-mo cycle), but recently farmers are requesting varieties that can mat...
