Predicting the cross-continental spread of the cassava brown streak disease epidemic in sub-Saharan Africa Open
Cassava brown streak disease (CBSD) is a major threat to smallholder farmers in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), where cassava is a staple crop. Caused by cassava brown streak ipomoviruses (CBSIs), CBSD has spread extensively since its detection …

Assessment of cassava mosaic disease (CMD) intensity and whitefly (Bemisia tabaci) population in Cameroon based on field surveys Open
Cassava mosaic disease (CMD) remains a major constraint to cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) production in Cameroon. This study aimed to generate updated epidemiological data on CMD across the country. Surveys were conducted in 342 fields…

DEVELOPMENT AND MANAGEMENT OF GREEN SPACES IN SUB-SAHARAN AFRICA: WHAT ROLES FOR NATIVE PLANT SPECIES? Open
Ordinary models of development and management of green spaces in sub-Saharan Africa, often based on fragmented functional zoning with the use of exotic species requiring lot of maintenance, seems today unsuited to the challenges of sustain…

Cassava mosaic disease and its whitefly vector in Cameroon: Incidence, severity and whitefly numbers from field surveys Open
Cassava plays a key role in the food security and economy of Cameroon, but its production is constrained by cassava mosaic disease (CMD). However, comprehensive surveys of CMD in Cameroon have been lacking. This study aimed at evaluating t…

Effective medium for in vitro sprouting of the buds and multiplication of the plantlets, and identification of the fungal contaminant associated with the explants of Gnetum Open
Plant tissue culture requires the optimization of growth media. Gnetum, known locally in Cameroon as “Eru” is an indigenous gymnospermous vegetable with diverse medicinal, nutritional, cultural and socio-economic values. This reso…

Acibenzolar-S-methyl induces resistance against cassava mosaic geminiviruses in Nicotiana benthamiana and their vector Bemisia tabaci in cassava (Manihot esculenta) Open
Cassava mosaic disease (CMD), caused by cassava mosaic geminiviruses (CMGs), is a major constraint to the cassava crop in Africa and southeastern Asia. Here, we investigated the ability of acibenzolar-S-methyl (ASM), a functional analog of…
