Conteúdo: 	Wild species Manihot are progenitors of cassava. They constitute valuable genetic reservoirs genes of new characters. Screening these species showed some of them to have a notably high percentage of protein combined with a low percentage of hydrocyanic acid. Study of natural habitats revealed toxicity and adaptation to cool temperature hybridizations between different wild Manihot species and cassava have been carried out and hybrids were obtained, some of which showed high root productivity and resistence to stem borers.
