Objectif du projet<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

L'objectif principal de ce projet est de d\u00e9velopper des outils innovants pour relancer la production de taro en Afrique de l'Ouest en am\u00e9liorant la d\u00e9tection des maladies, la surveillance, la s\u00e9lection pour la r\u00e9sistance et les strat\u00e9gies de lutte contre les maladies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

R\u00e9sultats attendus<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
