Early detection of Super-elongation disease in Manihot esculenta Crantz (cassava) using molecular markers for gibberellic acid biosynthesis

2015-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) is an increasingly important tropical root crop. It is however affected by an endemic disease in the Caribbean called Super-elongation caused by the fungus Sphaceloma manihoticola. Traditional methods of detection and laboratory confirmation of S. manihoticola infection depend on the observation of seasonally variable stem elongation symptoms, and confirmatory fungal growth of cu...
