Finally online! Cassava brown streak disease (CBSD) is a threat to cassava production in Africa. Therefore screening for resistance in farmer-preferred genotypes is crucial for effective control and management. mdpi.com/2223-7747/9/8/…

Cassava is an important staple crop for food and income in Africa. Cassava brown streak disease (CBSD) limits cassava production in Africa. Mutagenesis is a proven way to expand genetic variability in crops which can be exploited for development of CBSD tolerant varieties.
