Book Description
Cassava is a major tropical tuber crop found throughout the tropics (India, Oceania, Africa and Latin America). Hitherto, there has been no single text covering all aspects of cassava biology, production and utilization. This book fills that gap, representing the first comprehensive research level overview of this main staple crop. Chapters are written by leading experts in this field from all continents. The book is suitable for those working and researching in cassava, in both developed and developing countries, as well as advanced students.

Book Description
Cassava is a staple crop in a large number of countries due to its adaptability to a variety of climatic conditions. It has spread extensively throughout Latin America, tropical Asia, and Sub-Saharan Africa. Cassava, which is well known for its high carbohydrate content, is the third most carbohydrate-rich food after rice and maize. This book discusses the diversity of cassava and its microbiome, cassava cultivation and postharvest practices, as well as crop yield-reducing diseases. Due to its widespread use and market importance, cassava has been subjected to biological and technological intervention to ensure food safety. This book will help readers to gain knowledge about cassava, its biological properties, and some of the strategies and procedures necessary to increase cassava crop output.

Book Description
Most basic information on plant-mealybug interactions during the last decade has come from research on the cassava Manihot esculenta Crantz (Euphorbiaceae) system with two mealybug species, namely Phenacoccus manihoti Matile-Ferrero and Phenacoccus herreni Cox and Williams (Sternorrhyncha: Pseudococcidae). Both these insects cause severe damage to cassava in Africa and South America, respectively. This book reviews these interactions (plant selection by the insects, nutritional requirements

Book Description
We believe it is useful to restate the objectives of the Series, expressed in the preface of its first volume. The purpose is to provide agricultural researchers in each country or group of countries a substantial portion of material on beans, cassava, or tropical pastures, published in those countries, by means of a single instrument that allows for easy, organized access to the collective work of the country or region. It is also our purpose to create an inventory. Readers will find that the bibliography presented is incomplete and that references to some of their own publications, or to those of other authors they know, are missing. We encourage you to let us know about those deficiencies, and, in addition, to send us copies of missing publications, so theycan be indexed for the database and appear in future publications such as this one. We also ask you to send us the publications that you produce in the future to help us keep our document collection current.
