Abstract
Cassava is a staple food in over twenty African countries, including Gabon. However, current production cannot meet the needs of the Gabonese people. Studies are being carried out to find ways of increasing national production throughout the country. Our study of sixteen cassava genotypes planted in different agro-ecological zones of Gabon focuses on three quantitative variables: number of lobes per leaf, petiole length and plant height at the vegetative stage. This study was carried out to see which introduced cassava genotypes were adapted to environments with different rainfall levels.
