As global land comes under increasing anthropogenic management, considering the impacts of management practices on ecosystem services (ES) is essential. Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) cultivation has expanded dramatically in the tropics, currently representing over 25 million hectares managed by millions of smallholders (Fig. 1). Diversification is often cited as a strategy for augmenting the functioning of ES in agricultural landscapes (Brooker et al., 2015; Kremen & Miles, 2012). Despite this, attempts to comprehensively evaluate diversification practices in cassava from an ES perspective remain rare. We conducted a systematic literature review of intercropping in cassava cultivation systems, and employed the concept of ES bundles to evaluate the impacts of diversification on a key set of ES.Item The challenge of sustainable and inclusive rural transformation: which role for RTB crops?

Eradication is difficult and infestation can result in 100% yield loss, making this a strictly quarantined pathogen worldwide. Emerging epidemics pose a high risk to production in Georgia where potato is an essential staple, grown primarily by smallholder farmers, and yields are among the world’s lowest. S. endobioticum was first reported in Georgia in 2014 in a localized outbreak in Adjara. Because pathogen dissemination is primarily via human transport of infested tubers, understanding the local potato seed system is critical. This study was the first to systematically characterize the actors involved in seed and ware potato production and trade in Georgia. To collect this information, an expert elicitation was conducted in 2017 across a broad range of participants from the Georgian potato production sector. We present a model of the current potato seed exchange network for the most important agroecological regions. We integrated network analysis in a risk assessment for S. endobioticum spread in Georgia under 1) no intervention, 2) quarantine, 3) introduction of host plant resistance, and 4) combined quarantine and resistance deployment. Preliminary analyses suggest that under no intervention, risk of spread is high, while rapid and consistent quarantine can be effective. Methods presented here provide a general framework for future seed system risk assessments.Item Transformational adaptation of key root and tuber crops in Asia: Assessing crop suitability amidst climate change by species distribution modelling(Report, 2019-10-01) Palao, Leo K.; Naziri, D.; Balanza, Jane Girly C.; Campilan, D.M.Widespread negative impacts of climate change include limited plant growth, decreased soil fertility and ultimately limited food production. Roots, tubers and bananas (RTB) are key commodities for food security, nutrition and livelihoods especially among smallholder farmers. Furthermore, roots and tubers, being resilient crops, can help farmers adapt to climate change and variability. Nevertheless, food security and livelihood agenda mostly emphasize on grain crops (such as rice, maize, and wheat), and very few studies have looked into the future potential of RTB crops and their likely increasing importance in the face of climate change. This study attempts to identify areas in the Asia Pacific region where considerable climate impacts that threaten agricultural viability of major crops are expected. The study used climate projections and species distribution modeling approach for eight key crops in the region. In areas where impacts are very high, it is assumed that the currently cultivated crops may need to be substituted with more resilient crops.Item Screening for resistance to late blight in wild potato species and landraces in greenhouse conditions in Peru.(Poster, 2019-06) Pérez, W.; Rojas, T.; Alarcón, L.; Andrade-Piedra, J.L.Fifty-seven accessions of wild potato species and 352 accessions of potato landraces hold in the International Potato Center (CIP) were tested for resistance to late blight (LB) in a series of greenhouse experiments from May to December 2018, in Lima, Peru. Wide phenotypic variation for resistance was found within and among species. Six accessions of wild species (Solanum albornozii, S. andreanum, S. lesteri, S. longiconicum, S. morelliforme, and S. stenophyllidium) had more than 60% of genotypes with susceptibility values between 0 to 3. Likewise, 46 of 352 accessions of potato landraces presented similar susceptibility values than those of resistant varieties used as controls. With this study we identified source of resistance to LB to be used by breeders or by farmers directly, in the case of potato landraces. The results confirm the value of conserving potato genetic resources.Item Banishing banana wilt: can it get any easier?(Poster, 2019-05-31) Ocimati, W.; Schagen, Boudy van; Kozicka, M.; Kikulwe, Enoch Mutebi; Gotor, Elisabetta; Blomme, Guy
