Cyanogenic potential in food crops and its implication in cassava ( Manihot esculenta Crantz) production
Cyanide a by-product from cyanogenic glucosides is toxic to humans and most living organisms due to its ability of binding to metals such as iron, zinc and copper functional groups of the ligands of most bio enzymes. The cyanide inhibits the reduction of oxygen in the respiratory electron transfer s...
