Development of methodologies for the isolation and culture of cassava immature pollen and zygotic embryos
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/55689
Abstract
Highly efficient systems for the isolation and in vitro culture of cassava pollen and zygotic embryos have been developed. These methodologies have allowed the manipulation of large quantities of isolated pollen from immature and mature anthers for use in studies towards haploid induction and pollen…

Esterase isozyme fingerprinting of the cassava germplasm collection held at CIAT
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/55687
Abstract
Esterase isozymes were chosen for fingerprinting CIAT`s cassava germplasm colleciton, because of (1) their technical repeatability; (2) high polymorphism (i.e., many alleles per locus); and (3) high numner of bands detectable in cassava clones (i.e., at least a few loci are expressed). A total of 4304 accessinos (about 86 of the total…

Genetics of esterase and glutamate oxaloacetate transaminase isozymes in cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz)
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/55686
Abstract
Genetic studies of two isozyme loci have been carried out in root tips of eight cassava F1 progenies using polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Two loci, esterase-1 (East-1), the most distant cationic region, and glutamate oxaloacetate transaminase-1 (Got-1), the most proximal anionic region, were evaluated among…

Research for sustainable agricultural production systems in high altitude zones of Eastern Africa
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/55713
Abstract
Demands for food and fiber are increasing at a faster rate than supply in the medium and high altitude zones of Eastern Africa, while the productivity of the land is apparently declining. In many cases, productivity is constrained primarily by insufficient nutrient supply. To meet future demands for food, the land`s…

Evidences for endophytes parasiting traditional clones of cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz)
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/55694
Abstract
The existence of endophytes in cassava was suspected for the following reasons: (a) A wide range variation of root yield is frequent among disease-symptomless plants growing on the same plot; (b) root yield of low-yielding, virus-free plants of traditional clones can be increased by meristem culture; (c) the performance (i.e.…
