Highre-solution linkage map and chromosome-scale genome assembly for cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) from 10 populations
Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) is a major staple crop in Africa, Asia, and South America,
and its starchy roots provide nourishment for 800 million people worldwide. Although native to South
America, cassava was brought to Africa 400–500 years ago and is now widely cultivated across sub-Saharan
Africa, but it is subject to biotic and abiotic stresses. To assist in the rapid identification of markers for
pathogen resistance and crop traits, and to accelerate breeding programs, we generated a framework map
for M. esculenta Crantz from reduced representation sequencing [genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS)]. The
composite 2412-cM map integrates 10 biparental maps (comprising 3480 meioses) and organizes 22,403
genetic markers on 18 chromosomes, in agreement with the observed karyotype. We used the map to
anchor 71.9% of the draft genome assembly and 90.7% of the predicted protein-coding genes. The
chromosome-anchored genome sequence will be useful for breeding improvement by assisting in the rapid
identification of markers linked to important traits, and in providing a framework for genomic selectionenhanced
breeding of this important crop

The purposes of these research are to produce oxalic acid from cassava peel. The
material of this research is cassava peel, because cassava peel contains
carbohydrate. The method of this research is oxidation carbohydrate with nitric
acid. The oxidation process with nitric acid, matters the contain carbohydrate
changed to oxalic acid. The oxidation carbohydrate with nitric acid produce oxalic
acid that high purity. The research use variation time of reaction are 40 minutes,
60 minutes and 80 minutes, temperature constant control 75oC, the concentration
of nitric acid are 40%, 50% and 60%. The best result of this research from 25 gr
cassava peel produce 5,58 gr oxalic acid has 31,11 % yield, by using 60% nitric
acid, time of reaction 80 minutes. The influence from the concentrations of nitric
acid and time of reaction is higher concentration of nitric acid and time of
reaction, so the product will be increase. The quality of oxalic acid has melting
point 101,5 oC, dissolve in the water (20oC) and density 1,310 gr/ml. Oxalic acid
has white colour crystals
