Genetic architecture and gene mapping of cyanide in cassava ( <i>Manihot esculenta Crantz</i> .)
2020-06-20
Abstract excerpt
Cassava is a root crop originating from South America and a major staple crop in the Tropics, including marginal environments. In this study, we focused on South American and African cassava germplasm and investigated the genetic architecture of Hydrogen Cyanide (HCN), a major component of tuber quality. HCN is a plant defense component against herbivory but also toxic for human consumption. We genotyped 3,354 lan...
