Good to see you again little yellow friend. How have you grown after 5 months? #Cassava #Diseases

Yesterday was a great opportunity to meet with our partners from the Plant Protection Center (PPC) from Laos, it is a great task force against cassava diseases. #cassava #Diseases

With support from the #cassava breeding team, we're exploring the North Coast of #Colombia for the elusive "frog" (cassava frogskin disease), testing molecular #diagnostics and a protocol for early reproduction of symptoms in our cassava "Reina".

📢 The Alliance and IRRI 🌾 are hosting a regional workshop on transboundary pests and diseases in #Laos to foster sustainable and resilient cassava and rice farming systems across #ASEAN. Discover more about the event and its agenda. alliancebioversityciat.org/events/regiona…

Many new #varieties from mainland #SEAsia in farmers fields in #Lampung. So many new names. 🤔 Critical need to strengthen the ASEAN #cassava #breeders network to make sure introduction is happening safely & #disease 🦠 not following. CGIAR Ismahane Elouafi @CGIARgenetic
