Rapid cycling recurrent selection for increased carotenoids content in cassava roots
Improving total carotenoids content (TCC) in cassava roots is an important strategy to reduce vitamin A deficiency in human populations that rely on cassava as a source of energy in their diets. The high heritability for TCC in the roots allowed the International Center for Tropical Agriculture to i...
