ABSTRACT SELECTION OF SWEET CASSAVA ELITE-CLONES FOR AGRONOMICAL,TECHNOLOGICAL AND CHEMICAL CHARACTERISTICS Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) is one of the most important crops for human nutrition in thetropics, especially for low-income populations. This study aimed at to evaluate and select elite clones ofsweet cassava regarding to chemical, agronomic and technological aspects, twelve clones of InstitutoAgronomico breeding program were compared to control variety IAC 576-70 as to yield of roots, cooking,time, cyanogen compounds, total carotenoids, β -carotene, vitamin A and mineral components. Ten clonesshowed high yields. Average cooking time was high, 43.8 minutes. Among clones, only 66/99 showed ( 1 ) Recebido para publicacao em 2 de abril de 2007 e aceito em 18 de fevereiro de 2009.( 2 ) Mestre em Agricultura Tropical e Subtropical pelo Instituto Agronomico (IAC), Campinas (SP).E-mail:thiagomezette@yahoo.com.br; joaogalera@gmail.com( 3 ) Instituto Agronomico (IAC), 13012-970 Campinas (SP).
