Mediated pleiotropy drives the negative correlation of total carotenoid and dry matter contents in cassava (Manihot esculenta)
Plant breeders aim to increase provitamin A carotenoids in cassava (Manihot esculenta) storage roots to help combat vitamin A deficiency in sub-Saharan Africa, but a negative genetic correlation between total carotenoid and dry matter contents hinders progress. While genetic linkage between a major-...
