(Makerere University, 2011-12)This study was conducted to enhance the efficiency of IITA-Uganda cassava breeding programme through quantification of genetic diversity among the cassava mosaic disease (CMD) resistant breeding populations and identification ... -
Development of marker based for breeding cassava for resistance to cassava mosaic disease
(Makerere University, 2010-05)The dreaded cassava mosaic disease (CMD) caused by cassava mosaic virus (es) still remains the major hindrance to production of cassava in many cassava growing areas. Breeding for host resistance to this disease has ... -
Identification and characterization of cassava mosaic begomovirus-like viruses associated with non-cassava plants in Kenya
(Makerere University, 2021)Cassava mosaic disease (CMD) is one of the major viral crop diseases in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). In Kenya, CMD is caused by four cassava mosaic begomovirus (CMB) species namely East African cassava mosaic virus (EACMV), ... -
Response of improved cassava varieties in Uganda to cassava mosaic disease (CMD) and their inherent resistance mechanisms
(Academic Journals, 2011)Field based trials were setup to evaluate response and inherent resistance mechanisms to cassava mosaic disease (CMD) of four improved varieties; Nase 9, Nase 11, 00036 and 00057 together with Nase 4 and Bao as resistant ... -
Response of local cassava varieties in Uganda to cassava mosaic virus disease
(SCIENCEDOMAIN International, 2012)Cassava mosaic disease (CMD) resistant varieties have been used to manage CMD in Uganda. In spite the availability of a number of CMD resistant cultivars, several local landraces are continually grown in Uganda because ...
