 In: In: Belen, E.H.; Villanueva, M. (eds.). International Symposium on Tropical Root and Tuber Crops (5, 1979, Los Banos, Laguna, Philippines). ProceedingsSummary: Three crosses of cassava involving 4 parents, 3 exotic (Ce 22, Ce 110, Ce 117) and one indigenous (Ci 776), with different DM content in tubers were studied. Patterns of variation in the F1 population are reported. Parents Ce 22 and Ce 177 had high DM content while Ce 110 had medium and Ci 776 low DM contents. When these were crossed in 3 combinations (Ce 22 x Ce 177, Ce 22 x Ce 110, Ce 22 x Ci 776), a higher frequency of seedlings containing more DM than the parents was observed when both parent tubers had high DM content. DM contents varied from 19.2-66.4 percent. (AS)
