Abstract/Description
Results are presented of various trials with cassava. The importance of DM production and factors affecting it, such as LAI and leaf inclination, are discussed. The relative importance of DM production and its distribution, particularly in relation to spacing, are reviewed. The author suggests a plant ideotype based on these observations. (AS)
Se presentan los resultados de varios ensayos con yuca. Se discute la importancia de la produccion de MS y los factores que la afectan, tales como el IAF y la inclinacion de la hoja. Se revisa la importancia relativa de la produccion de MS y su distribucion, particularmente en relacion con la densidad de siembra. Con base en estas observaciones se sugiere un tipo de planta ideal.
