Flagship Project 2: Adapted Productive Varieties and Quality Seed of RTB Crops (original) (raw)
Allows to obtain large number of seeds early for late flowering genotypes. implemented at CIAT to shorten the duration of the pollination season from 16 to 10 months and increase the seeds for erect and late flowering progenitors The flower inducing technology includes photoperiod extension, pruning, and application of BA (6-Benzylaminopurine). Cassava-flowering inducing technology DN, dark night; EP, Extended Photoperiod, NP, no pruning; P1st, pruning at the first branch; P2nd, pruning at the end branch; P1st + BA, pruning at the first branch and application of BA; P2nd + BA, pruning at the second branch and application of BA;
