Gari, a traditional cassava semolina in West Africa: its stability and shelf life and the role of water
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/54848
Abstract
Gari is a cassava semolina traditionally processed and widely consumed in West Africa. Its shelf-life is largely dependent on both its water content and storage temperature and relative humidity. This paper deals with gari`s adsorption properties in relation to water availability at 15, 25, and 30 degrees C. From the…

Abstract
The Zona da Mata region of Minas Gerais, Brazil, is characterized by mountainous topography, the presence of low fertility, highly acidic red-yellow latosols, and the predominance of naturalized pastures of molasses grass (Melinis minutiflora). In studies carried out in the area, Cratylia argentea showed slow initial growth but, after…

Abstract
Two essentials for breeding new cultivars of Brachiaria are germplasm diversity and information on basic biological aspects of major species. This paper reviews current knowledge on the cytological behavior, mode of reproduction and its inheritance, and crossing compatibility of different species. The two of major agronomic importance-B. decumbens and R…

Abstract
An analysis of the recent trend in cassava area, production and yield during 1993-96 revealed an impressive increase in Tamil Nadu, which is the predominant state where cassava is grown as an industrial crop. Its present yield of 29 t/ha is the highest in the world. Even though the overall national trend in cassava area and production is declining, India's…

Abstract
Over the period 1994-1996, seven batches of seeds and two of meristem tissue cultures were evaluated and selected. As important as root yield is the trait starch content (or dry matter content) if a clone is to be accepted as a starch cultivar. At the time of reporting a number of clones have been identified as having yield levels similar to the high-yielding early…
