Comparative transcriptomics revealed enhanced light responses, energy transport and storage in domestication of cassava (Manihot esculenta)

Cassava is a staple food, feed and bioenergy crop important to the world especially in the tropics. Domesticated cassava is characterized by powerful carbohydrate accumulation but its wild progenitor is not. Here, we investigated the transcriptional differences of eight cDNA libraries derived from d...
