Onset and Rate of Root Bulking in Cassava

  • Douglas W. Wholey (a1) and James H. Cock (a1)
Summary

Thirteen cultivars of cassava were planted, widely spaced, and harvested after two, three, five and seven months. Differences in root yield after seven months were caused by variations in rate of root bulking, and were not associated with differences in onset of root bulking, which occurred during the second month of growth in all varieties that produced thickened roots.
