Five new cassava mosaic disease resistant (CMD) varieties released to farmers in Nigeria were evaluated for mineral composition. Results show that TME 419 differed significantly (p0.05) on calcium, sodium, copper, and zinc content of cassava flour. However, treatment effect was obvious in other minerals, chipped having a significant difference (p<0.05) in magnesium, potassium and manganese contents compared to grated samples. Conversely, grated samples differed significantly (p<0.05) in phosphorus and iron compared to chipped samples. Estimated daily recommended dietary allowances (RDA) from major minerals found in CMD varieties show that calcium, potassium, phosphorus and copper contributions to RDA ranged from 17.5-22.5%, 13.8-20.7%, 32....
