Field evaluation of six cassava genotypes for resistance to root rot disease was compared with three rapid laboratory methods (whole root inoculation, root slice inoculation, and stem inoculation) for resistance screening. Both the field evaluation and the three laboratory methods separated the varieties into resistant and susceptible groups. Genotypes 30572 and 91/02324 were resistant while 92/0247, 92/0057 and TME-1 were susceptible. One genotype (30001) was not consistent in its reaction between field evaluation and laboratory assays. In the laboratory assays with three fungal pathogens, different pathogens varied in their levels of virulence on host genotypes. With the most virulent pathogen (Botryodiplodia theobromae), the majority of ...
