Abstract

An urgent effort to conserve genetic resources of wild cassava is badly needed. Occurrence of wild cassava species in their natural habitats is diminishing day after day and a number of species are on the verge of extinction. Trials of collecting these wild species from their natural habitats were carried out. Frequency of their occurrence in these habitats is reported.
