Here, we report the genome sequence of the cassava (Manihot esculenta) latex parasite Phytomonas françai P. françai infection is linked with the yield-loss disease "chochamento de raizes" (empty roots) in the Unha variety of cassava, a disease characterized by poor root development and chlorosis of the leaves.

The screening of 114 groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) genotypes (61 advanced breeding lines and 53 releasedcultivars) was undertaken in the plots to identify iron-efficient tolerant lime-induced ironchlorosis.The crop grown intensity chlorosis top five leaves rated for visual chlorotic rating(VCR) score on a 1-5 scale percentage plants showing deficiency symptoms at 10, 20, 30 65 daysafter emerg...
