Razafindrakoto, C., López-Bermudez, R., Andrade, N.C., Silveira Filho, J., & Pimentel-Gomes, F. 1999 Manipueira e termoterapia no tratamento de estacas de mandioca atacadas por cochonilhas. [Manipueira and heat treatment for the treatment of cassava cuttings attacked by scale insects.]. Revista de Agricultura Piracicaba 74(2): 127-136.

Notes: Immersion of cassava cuttings in manipueira [a liquid extract from cassava roots] and immersion in hot water were tested against the scale insects Mytilaspis dispar [Lepidosaphes dispar] and Phenacoccus manihoti. The best results were obtained with one single immersion in manipueira for 60 minutes.
