Enhancing cassava reproductive development does not negatively impact shoot to root ratio and dry matter content in storage roots

2020-12-21

Abstract excerpt

From previous studies we developed treatments that significantly improved cassava female flower and fruit development, using a combination of the anti-ethylene, silver thiosulfate (STS), and the cytokinin, benzyladenine (BA); collectively referred to as plant growth regulators (PGR). In this study, we investigated whether the benefit derived from this treatment altered partitioning of photosynthate to other sinks...
