Understanding Biotic Stress and Hormone Signalling in Cassava (<i>Manihot esculenta</i>): Potential for Using Hyphenated Analytical Techniques

Understanding Biotic Stress and Hormone Signalling in Cassava (<i>Manihot esculenta</i>): Potential for Using Hyphenated Analytical Techniques

Biotic stresses often constitute major factors limiting global crop yields. A better understanding of plant responses to these stresses will facilitate efforts to improve stress tolerance and yields, especially in a climatically changing world. Numerous attempts have been made to confer tolerance/re...
