Development and validation of genomic tools for marker-assisted breeding of cassava mosaic disease resistance in cassava (Manihot esculenta)

In a bid to fast-track the process of selection of cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) genotypes resistant to the cassava mosaic disease (CMD), caused by whitefly-transmitted begomoviruses, a number of molecular markers have been developed to map resistance genes. The simple sequence repeat (SSR) mar...
