MASCAS: Molecular marker-assisted selection in Cassava Breeding mascas.jpg (28284 bytes)
Cassava is a crop that has largely been left behind by scientific plant breeding partly due to its status as an orphan crop with limited resources for research and development, its highly heterozygous nature, and its long reproductive cycle. Tools of genomics particularly molecular markers permit an immediate increase of efficiency in cassava breeding.
