Genetic complexity of cassava brown streak disease: insights from qPCR-based viral titer analysis and genome-wide association studies

Cassava, a vital global food source, faces a threat from Cassava Brown Streak Disease (CBSD). CBSD results from two viruses: Cassava brown streak virus (CBSV) and Ugandan cassava brown streak virus (UCBSV). These viruses frequently pose challenges to the traditional symptom-based 1-5 phenotyping met...
