One of the most important problems in the sweet cassava exploration is the lack of knowledge about the potential yield, chemical composition and cooking time of roots of the traditional cultivars planted by the growers. This way, fourteen cultivars collected in the North, Northwest, and West regions of the state of Paraná were evaluated in the years of 2001/02 and 2002/03 using the randomized complete blocks experimental design with four replicates. The traditional cultivars Caipira, Branca 1, Amarela 1, Amarela 2 and Fécula Branca showed the highest roots yields and starch contents, a good and regular cooking time, low HCN content, and tolerance to bacterial blight.Downloads
