A Virus-Derived Stacked RNAi Construct Confers Robust Resistance to Cassava Brown Streak Disease

Cassava brown streak disease (CBSD) threatens food and economic security for smallholder farmers throughout East and Central Africa, and poses a threat to cassava production in West Africa. CBSD is caused by two whitefly-transmitted virus species: Cassava brown streak virus (CBSV) and Ugandan cassav...
