Cassava breeding and varietal dissemination in Indonesia during 1975-2000: Major achievements during the past 25 years
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/82431
Abstract
High-yielding varieties, adapted to local conditions and satisfying local preferences, is one of the most important components of improved technologies. Since cassava is propagated vegetatively using farmers’ own planting material, the use of high-yielding varieties will give substantial economic gains…

Mapping of soil properties and land degradation risk in Africa using MODIS reflectance
World Agroforestry Centre (ICRAF)
Abstract
There is a need for up-to-date assessments and maps of soil properties and land health at scales relevant for decision-making and management, including for properties that are dynamic and hence change in response to management. Also, there is a need for approaches to soil mapping that capture the ever increasing effects that humans are having on the environment in general and specifically on soil…

Sowing density effect on common bean leaf area development
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/76271
Abstract
Sowing density is a major management factor that affects growth and development of grain crops by modifying the canopy light environment and interplant competition for water and nutrients. While the effects of sowing density and plant architecture on static vegetative and reproductive growth traits have been explored previously in the common bean, few studies…

Climate change and cocoa cultivation
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/97013
Abstract
Climate change has been projected to impact cocoa production unless cultivation practices are adapted. Guiding effective adaptation is a challenging task because of the high model uncertainty for precipitation which is a vital consideration for cocoa producers. We focus on identifying preconditions for forward-looking, proactive adaptation, describing global climatic changes at…

Molecular approaches in cassava breeding
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/89960
Abstract
In cassava, as for other major crops, molecular markers can reveal the genetic basis for both qualitative and quantitative phenotypic changes. This chapter examines the genetic diversity of cassava, the process of marker-assisted selection (MAS) and the application of genome sequencing to cassava. The chapter looks ahead to the future potential of genetic engineering of cassava…
