To shed light on trends about elimination of viruses from plants, a bibliographic research
was conducted to identify thermotherapy, chemotherapy and tissue culture trials published …

Virus and viroid diseases are serious constraints to the production and profitability of a wide
range of tropical crops. Many plant virus outbreaks have been recorded in the last two …

Many of the world's most important food crops are grown in the tropics and major crops like
rice, maize, wheat, sorghum, barley, tomato, chillies, okra, peas, peanut, sunflower …

Biotic stresses often constitute major factors limiting global crop yields. A better

Cassava is a key food security staple and a competitive feedstock for multiple industrial
processes and end uses. Farmers grow hybrids which are reproduced vegetatively. Several …

Virus infection in potato reduces yield through seed degeneration. This can be reduced by
use of virus-free seed tubers. However, novel approaches are required to ensure availability …

Cassava production in eastern and Central Africa is severely threatened by the current
epidemic of cassava brown streak disease (CBSD). The disease is caused by cassava …

Cassava genetic resources are highly threatened by devastating viral diseases. It is
therefore important to conserve the specifically farmer-preferred landraces/cultivars that are …

This work tested the effect of different growth regulators on Manihot esculenta explants
cultured. Nodal segments were disinfected and cultivated on Murashige and Skoog's basal …

Three cassava accessions (Agric-Sé, Hombètè, Ouémènou) were examined in three
different media with different combinations of growth regulators, NAA, 2, 4-D (auxins), BAP …
