Abstract:
When cassava is harvested too early, it often leads to reduction in yield, while delayed harvest leads to development of woody and fibrous tuberous roots, and reduction in starch content. The optimum harvest time is not known. The objectives of this study were to determine the effect of genotype, location and season on starch extraction in order to find an optimum harvest regime for cassava, and to find the best parameter for monitoring starch levels in cassava tuberous roots. Results showed that genotypic effect was large for starch weight, starch extraction rate on fresh weight basis, and root dry matter content. This suggested that high starch weights could be realised by selection of suitable varieties for starch extraction. It was found that cassava harvesting and starch extractions should be done between October and November since the highest starch extraction rates were achieved during that period, and drying of the extracted starch using the open air method was fast and convenient. The results also suggested that starch levels can efficiently be monitored using starch extraction rate on fresh root weight basis. Starch content on fresh root basis and root dry matter content can also be used to determine the optimum time to harvest cassava for starch extraction but were inferior to starch extraction on fresh root weight basis.

Abstract:
Cassava is one of the most important sources of carbohydrates for over 500 million people in the tropics and subtropics. Cassava can be cultivated under conditions considered marginal for most other staple crops and has the added advantage of being utilized as an industrial crop for producing starch and derived products. Thus, cassava appeals to resource-limited, small-scale farmers as well as commercial farming systems. Due to high levels of heterozygosity and low flowering, breeding of cassava is arduous and advances in biotechnology could complement conventional breeding programs. However, as an orphan crop, tools for biotechnology-mediated improvement of cassava are currently limited. To enhance available genomics resources for cassava, we generated and characterized an 18,166 Expressed Sequence Tag (EST) dataset enriched for drought responsive genes. This dataset contains 8,577 unigenes comprised of 3,194 clusters and 5,383 singletons. About 63% of these ESTs could be annotated, while 11% were homologous to hypothetical genes with unknown function. The remaining 26% were not significantly homologous to sequences in public databases. To increase the repertoire of markers for molecular genetic applications, we identified Simple Sequence Repeats (SSRs) from this EST resource and validated these using a diverse cassava panel. We also utilized this EST resource, as well as publicly available sequences, to develop a 60-mer oligo DNA microarray: a total of 35,785 ESTs were assembled into 5,230 contigs and 8,838 singletons and used to design an array with ~11,000 probes for transcriptome analysis. Progress in these areas will be presented.
