In Asia, cassava (Manihot esculenta) is cultivated by more than 8 million farmers, driving the rural economy of many countries. The International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT), in partnership with national agricultural research institutes (NARIs), instigated breeding and agronomic 1983. program has successfully released high-yielding cultivars resulting an average yield increase from 13.0 t ha–1 1996 to 21.3 2016, significant economic benefits. Following success increasing yields,...
Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) is a major tropical crop. Regarded as an orphan crop few decades ago, it now receives considerable attention from governments, industry and agencies investing in agricultural research. As result, the cassava community generates vast amounts of information develops useful technologies products. This positions key industrial commodity reliable food security staple. Significant genetic gains have been achieved through early 2000s. Gains are particularly...
Despite cassava’s significance as a staple crop in tropical and subtropical regions, there is limited understanding of how specific environmental factors influence the productivity different cassava varieties. This study investigated complex relationship between yield traits such fresh root (FRY), dry (DRY), starch content (SC) harvest index (HI) using data obtained from six varieties cultivated for five seasons (2014 to 2019) across nine major locations Thailand. A total 41 distinct trials...
ABSTRACT Cassava ( Manihot esculenta Crantz) starch is traded in international markets more than from any other source. The industry requires cassava cultivars with novel characteristics for commercial exploitation. A natural source of waxy (amylose‐free) starch, clone AM 206‐5, was identified at the International Center Tropical Agriculture (CIAT). granule‐bound synthase I GBSSI ) gene related to trait. objectives this study were introgress mutation into Thailand's breeding populations,...
Abstract Phenotypic analysis of cassava root crowns (CRCs) so far has been limited to visual inspection and very few measurements due its laborious process in the field. Here, we developed a platform for acquiring 3D CRC models using close-range photogrammetry phenotypic analysis. The state art is low cost easy set up acquisition requiring only background sheet, reference object camera, compatible with field experiments remote areas. We tested different software samples, Agisoft Blender were...
Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) is a key industrial crop in Southeast Asia and staple for food security Africa, owing to its resilience efficiency starch production. This study aims unravel the genetic determinants of specific cassava root crown traits, utilizing 3D modeling yield-related attributes morphology. Phenotypic analysis 130 partially inbred lines their six parental from Thai commercial varieties revealed range traits within populations showcasing robust correlations among...
The demand by industries for large-seeded peanuts is increasing in Thailand and Southeast Asia. New peanut lines were recently developed to respond the demand. In this study, a multilocation yield trial was performed identify best genotype(s) Thailand’s central region investigate genotype–environment interaction (GEI) on production. Twelve promising two check varieties (KU50 KK6) planted at 12 different planting locations during dry rainy seasons of 2018 season 2019. This study found...
Cassava breeding is a critical aspect of sustainable agriculture to address the challenges food security and climate change. The present study aimed assess combining ability six Thai cassava elite varieties for four key traits, including fresh root yield (FRY), shoot (FSY), harvest index (HI) starch content (SC) through an analysis diallel mating design over two years. Parental lines HB80 R5 showed significant positive general (GCA) effects high SC; R1 low FSY; FRY HI. genetic FSY, SC HI...
Abstract
Social Impact Statement Cassava is a vital food source for millions worldwide, crucial security and economic stability. This study analyzed cell wall polysaccharides in cassava roots to understand their impact on cooking properties. We found these influence the textural attributes of roots, essential both consumption. The research highlights need further identify analyze components. By improving our understanding components, we can improve security, affordability, resilience diverse regions,...
