Farmer participatory evaluation of four hybrid water yam clones in the yam belt of Nigeria
Effect of time of harvest of yam tubers on selected food quality characteristics was investigated to determine when yam tuber is due for harvesting. Setts from five land race varieties of white yam (Dioscorea rotundata) at their post-dormant stage were planted at the beginning of the rainy season...

Influence of time of harvest on the yield and sensory attributes of white yam (Dioscorea rotundata) in Southwest Nigeria
Inadequate yield potential of available varieties and their long growth periods are two of the factors limiting yam (Dioscorea spp.) production. Identifying yield- and maturity-related traits and breeding for them will enhance production. Ten morphological/physiological traits: time of shoot emer...
