Descripción
Agroecological factors with special reference to climate in the African cassava belt are reviewed. The direct effects of climate on the severity of cassava diseases and the survival of cassava pathogens are examined, examples being taken from the experience of cassava bacterial blight in Africa. A proposal for future research strategies in cassava pathology focusing on the ecology of cassava pathogens and other factors limiting cassava productivity in Africa is presented
