🌿 Hosting Assoc. Prof. Wanwisa Siriwan (#Kasetsart Univ.) for a talk on cassava’s defense against #SLCMV! 🗓️ Aug 19 | 11:15 AM | in JKI Connect with me if you’re working on cassava virology & want to join! #Cassava #PlantVirology @Leibniz_DSMZ_en

In Cruz das Almas with great team led by Saulo and Eder, we ran a workshop on #diagnostics for #Cassava Frogskin #Disease #CFSD& #virus localization with @EMBRAPA 🧬🔬 Hands-on learning, tech transfer, & strong collaboration to protect cassava! @Leibniz_DSMZ_en @StephanWinter11

📢 NEW GENOME ALERT In #G3journal, @SamarSheat and the team produced a high-quality genome assembly of cassava line COL40—a South American strain with resistance against viruses causing cassava brown streak disease—to improve future breeding programs. buff.ly/ZbnEFXq

Eid al-Adha is more than a holiday. It’s a reminder of faith, sacrifice & gratitude. To my friends, colleagues & community— Thank you for being part of my journey. Wishing you peace, purpose & joy. Eid Mubarak 🌙 #EidAlAdha #EidMubarak #Gratitude #FaithAndCommunity

🌱Emerging and Re-emerging Plant Virus Diseases in Southeast Asia🌱 At the #WSV2025 conference, hosted by @NibmMalaysia, Dr. #Rofina_Yasmin_Othman @unimalaya 🔬 @SamarSheat @StephanWinter11 @plantdisease @USDA_APHIS

🌱 At the 3rd World Society for Virology (WSV2025) Conference, hosted by @NibmMalaysia , Dr. #Selvarajan_Ramasamy from the @icarindia 🔬 “Current Status of the Management of Banana Bunchy Top Virus (BBTV) in India and Southeast Asia.” @StephanWinter11 @SamarSheat

Excited to talk about #cassava and the real threats it faces from #viral #diseases to #resilience #breeding Join me in 2025 #BookAScientist event by @LeibnizWGL to explore how research can save this vital crop. you find me under Mensch,Natur and Ökosytem leibniz-gemeinschaft.de/ueber-uns/neue…

🌿 #WSV2025 Conf. hosted by @NibmMalaysia , Dr. @SamarSheat of the @Leibniz_DSMZ_en delivered an inspiring presentation: 🧬 "Virus Resistance in Cassava: Integrating Genetic and Molecular Approaches to Achieve Broad-Spectrum Resistance Against Viruses from Diverse Families."

🌱✨ it was such great experience to speak at the Microbial Interactions in the Phytosphere Workshop at @tuBraunschweig, #cassava under threats: root rot #CRND & witches’ broom disease #CWBD. @Leibniz_DSMZ_en #PlantScience #FoodSecurity #CropProtection #SustainableAgriculture

Congratulations to our alumnus, Dr. Simon Peter Abah, for winning the Best Poster Presentation at the recently concluded 15th International Society for Tropical Root Crops – Africa Branch (ISTRC-AB) Symposium held in Abidjan, Côte d’Ivoire. Hearty congratulations to Dr. Abah!

🌿🥳Happy New year 2025 🥳💚 Here's to a year of good health, lots of love, plenty of laughter, and great success from Cassava team at DSMZ Plant Virus Department @Leibniz_DSMZ_en

Investment in #cassava disease 🦠 research 🔬 in Asia 🇱🇦 🇻🇳 🇰🇭 🇹🇭 paying dividends in LatinAmerica. @BiovIntCIAT_eng diagnostics developed in @CassDiseaseAsia supported by @ACIARAustralia 🇦🇺 @USAID 🇺🇸 confirm #CWBD in 🇧🇷🇬🇾 @embrapa @Cirad 🇫🇷 @CGIAR revistacultivar.com/news/Ministry-…

After our discovery of #COL40's #CBSD resistance in 2019 in South American germplasm, breeders worldwide embraced its potential combining it with CMD resistance Today, we stand proud in fields with COL40 and its progeny, 12-1 DSC 493, with high resistance to #CBSV #UCBSV & #CMD

Success in #Cassava #Virus #Resistance! 🌍 Huge thanks to @SamarSheat, @DrStephanWinte1 from @Leibniz_DSMZ_en, and the dedicated team: the exceptional resistance to CBSD & CMD holds strong! #PlantVirology
