Conteúdo: | Cassava is affected by a number of viruses, of which the African cassava mosaic virus (ACMV) is the most damaging in Africa, and the cassavacommon mosaic virus (CCMV) in South America. In 1986, a new application of genetic engineering, coat protein (CP) mediated resistance, was demonstrated as an efficient way of controlling plant virus diseases. Ajoint programme entitled the International Cassava-Trans Project (ICTP) and being implemented jointly by the Institut Francais de Rechherche Scientifique pour le Developpement en Cooperation (ORSTOM) and Washington University aims to apply this technique to cassava in order to reduce the impact of virus infection on cassava production.
