Abstract

Where prolonged drought is a major constraint for the success of food crops such as cereals and cassava(Manihot esculenta Crantz) produce reasonably well where prolonged drought is a major constraint for theircommercial success. In the case of cassava, this is due to its intermediate C3-C4 photosynthesis. Cassava hasentered the modern market economy and has a growing demand for its use in processed food, animal feeding,ethanol production, starch and its derivates, and for many different industrial applications. A shift from thetraditional small-scale plantings for the fresh market to larger-scale plantings for factory sales requires increasedyield, quality, and stability of production in drought-prone zones. In Latin America, approximately 45% of totalcassava area comes from sub-humid zones or with sporadic rainfall. Moreover, expansion of this crop tends tooccur in marginal lands. Although a wide range of genetic variability in most drought tolerant traits existswithin cassava germoplasm, a multidisciplinary research could increase the efficiency for the selection of thebest progenitors and gene pyramidation to increase preexisting drought tolerant physiological traits in cassavagenome. The main goal of this review is to outline potential research on physiology, biotechnology, andbreeding and their possibilities to improve traits to drougth tolerance in cassava.
