These maps have low marker resolution and/or do not resolve a complete set of linkage groups (LGs) representative of the 2n = 36 karyotype of cassava (De Carvalho and Guerra 2002).

Four undergraduates cut blocks of Parmesan cheese into small cubes while Savova mixed together eggs and cassava flour (farinha de mandioca) to produce a chewy dough.
Making it happen in cassava falls in part to Amanda De Souza, a postdoc from Brazil.
De Souza opens a petri dish to show off cassava embryos, light-yellow clusters about a millimeter wide.
Flaky shrimp pies, and eggy pão de queijo, or cheese bread made with parmesan and sour cassava flour, are worthy accompaniments to a shot of espresso.
Elsewhere, dried cranberries land in succulent lamb patties, tucked inside pão de queijo, Brazilian cheese rolls made with sweet and sour cassava starches so they are dense and sticky on the inside, like gougères collapsed in on themselves ($11).
Zeolin expression in cassava under control of the patatin promoter caused de novo formation of protein bodies in storage root cells in a manner never previously reported within tissues of this species (Figure S2B), and resulted in an increase in total protein content of approximately fourfold to reach 12.5% dw (Figure 2A).
The food was stunning, perhaps the best we ate in Bahia, particularly the house specialty, bobó de camarão, a mixture of jumbo shrimp, dried and grated sweet cassava, onions, green peppers, onions, tomatoes and coconut milk, among other things.
