Expression profiles of defense genes in cassava storage roots upon exposure to Phytopythium sp., causal agent of soft root rot disease

2018-12-01

Abstract excerpt

Cassava is one of the most important crops in Africa, Asia and Latin America, where millions of people depend on its starchy storage roots as their main source of energy. In Brazil, cassava is cultivated in all regions; however, soft root rot disease has hampered its production mainly in the Amazon region.
