Abstract

Efficiency of K uptake as reflected by leaf K content has positive relationships with fresh root and starch yields in unbranched cassava. In branched forms high K uptake depresses yield. Although dry matter production is enhanced by efficient K uptake the dominating top growth of branched forms probably influences the partitioning of these assimilates in its favour restricting root storage and yield
