In vitro cultured primary roots derived from stem segments of cassava (Manihot esculenta) can behave like storage organs.
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Cassava (Manihot esculenta) has three adventitious root types: primary and secondary fibrous roots, and storage roots. Different adventitious root types can also regenerate from in vitro cultured segments. The aim of this study was to investigate aspects of in vitro production of storage roots. METHODS Morphological and anatomical analyses were performed to identify and di...
متن کاملFactors affecting cyanide content in cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) [Faktor yang mempengaruhi kandungan sianida dalam ubi kayu (Manihot esculenta Crantz)]
Concern over poisoning as a result of eating cassava roots or shoots has led to these studies to determine factors which lead to high cyanide content in these tissues and how detoxification can be carried out. Plant age or stage of development does not seem to have a clear influence on root or shoot cyanide content. Genetic control on cyanide content seems significant as varieties may be identi...
متن کاملIn vitro anthelmintic activity of Cassava (Manihot esculenta) extract on Trichostongyloid larvae
Anthelmintic resistance has become a serious world-wide problem and has affected ruminant productivity in many countries. Thus the search for alternative methods of worm control has been an important priority in many small ruminant industries. Manihot esculenta had been shown to reduce trichostrongyloid eggs in infected sheep fed with such fresh leaves for prolonged period of time. Thus, this s...
متن کاملEvidence on the origin of cassava: phylogeography of Manihot esculenta.
Cassava (Manihot esculenta subsp. esculenta) is a staple crop with great economic importance worldwide, yet its evolutionary and geographical origins have remained unresolved and controversial. We have investigated this crop's domestication in a phylogeographic study based on the single-copy nuclear gene glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (G3pdh). The G3pdh locus provides high levels of n...
متن کاملReprogramming of cassava (Manihot esculenta) microspores towards sporophytic development
Gametes have the unique potential to enter the sporophytic pathway, called androgenesis. The plants produced are usually haploid and recombinant due to the preceding meiosis and they can double their chromosome number to form doubled haploids, which are completely homozygous. Availability of the doubled haploids facilitates mapping the genes of agronomically important traits, shortening the tim...
