Environmental effects on the tuberous roots cyanogenic potential, sugar content and taste of divergent cassava clones
Cyanide is toxic to most living beings. Cassava roots release cyanide in the human body if they are not properly processed before consumption. The environmental effects on the cyanogenic potential (0.1» and some cuIinary qualities of five divergent cassava clones were studied in two agro-ecological...
