The high content of cyanogenic glycosides(CG)in cassava tubers affects food safety.CG are involved in the plant growth and development and protect cassava leaves from herbivorous predators.However,the regulatory mecha...
Accurate classification of cassava disease,particularly in field scenarios,relies on object semantic localization to identify and precisely locate specific objects within an image based on their semantic meaning,there...
This study examines the effects of Acacia, Eucalyptus, and Cassava plantations on soil chemical composition in the Batéké Plateau, a tropical savanna region in Congo-Brazzaville. Using mid-infrared (MIR) spectroscop...
This study examined the right and left otoliths of 174 individuals of Pseudotolithus senegalensis from the Porto-Novo lagoon, Lake Nokoué and the Atlantic coast. The results show a significant variation in the popula...
Expanding the utilization of marginal land resources in rural areas is regarded as a significant supplement for the sustainable development of modern agriculture for its yield, economic and ecological good. Marginal a...
During this study, a focus is placed on the physical transformations that cassava undergoes during convective drying. The product continually changes its size, shape, and even its texture and consistency. The more moi...
This paper investigates the optimal conditions for methanisation applied to cow dung. Four experimental 25 liters digesters were used in this work. The best biogas yield is obtained when the digester is installed in a...
This study assessed the effect of cyanogenic potential (CNP) in leaf tissue on grasshopper incidence and severity of damage in cassava for the identification of parents with desired complementary traits for crossing. T...
The study was conducted to determine the influence of gratering and fermentation parameters on the physicochemical quality of starch obtained from two cassava varieties in Sierra Leone (i.e., SLICASS 11 and SLICASS 6)...
