Résumé : All cassava varieties are known to contain some level of cyanogenic glucosides (CGs). Linamarine and lotaustrine are the commonest CGs in cassava but linamarine is the most abundant. The linamarine is readily hydrolyzed to glucose and acetone cyanohydrin in the presence of linamarase enzyme, which is also inherently produced by the plant. Acetone cyanohydrin decomposes rapidly in neutral or alkaline solution, liberating cyanide gas. Production of free HCN in cassava roots is prevented by compartmentalization of linamerase in cell walls and linamarine and lotaustraline in the vacuole. Therefore, damage/rupture of root tissues is desired for this reaction to occur. This Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) documents steps taken during determination of cassava root HCN content using the picrate method at the National Crops Resources Research Institute (NaCRRI), under the auspices of the RTBfoods project. Furthermore, the RTBfoods project seeks to develop high-throughput phenotyping protocols to provide RTB breeders with fast, accurate, and reproducible procedures for rapid phenotyping of their populations. NIRS is one such technologies that has been widely deployed in plant phenomics. In order to build NIRS prediction models, reference data must be matched with NIRS spectra. This document provides an SOP for generating HCN reference data using the picrate method and matching this data to NIRS spectra. Calibration of HCN reference data and NIRS data is the object of a separate document.
