Oxidative stress responses during cassava post-harvest physiological deterioration

A major constraint to the development of cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) as a crop to both farmers and processors is its starchy storage roots' rapid post-harvest deterioration, which can render it unpalatable and unmarketable within 24 72 h. An oxidative burst occurs within 15 min of the root be...
