Plant in vitro vegetative propagation using classical semi-solid culture medium is limited due to the low degree of automation, suboptimal nutrient availability and induced physiological stress which often reduce its efficiency. Temporary Immersion System (TIS) emerged as an innovative approach t...

Development of core collection representing the diversity in the entire germplasm creates a better access and enhanced utilization of the main collection thus allowing rapid evaluation in crop improvement programs. Core collections are dynamic in nature and needs revisiting when additional germpl...

Musa acuminata (Musaceae) is a wild species native to South East Asia. In addition to its potential as a food crop, different non-food morphological parts of the plant have been investigated for various pharmacological activities, including anticholinesterase and antioxidant activity. This study ...


Sonibare, M.A.Ayoola, I.O.Gueye, B.Abberton, M.T.D'Souza, R.Kuhnert, N.[Leaves metabolomic profiling of Musa acuminata accessions using UPLC–QTOF–MS/MS and their antioxidant activity]Leaves metabolomic profiling of Musa acuminata accessions using UPLC–QTOF–MS/MS and their antioxidant activity

Dioscorea alata L. is one of the most widely grown and economically important yam species. Hundreds of accessions are maintained ex situ in germplasm collections and have been characterized with descriptors but new tools are still needed to assess tuber chemical composition. The objectives of the...


Lebot, V.Malapa, R.Abraham, K.Molisale, T.Van Kien, N.Gueye, B.Waki, J.[Secondary metabolites content may clarify the traditional selection process of the greater yam cultivars (Dioscorea alata L.)]Secondary metabolites content may clarify the traditional selection process of the greater yam cultivars (Dioscorea alata L.)

Yam plays a critical role in providing good quantity and quality yield and source of income to combat the challenge of food insecurity in the tropics. Although significant advances in science and technology have improved efficient management and improvement of their genetic resources, the mission...

The Moisture Adsorption Isotherm of three Yellow-fleshed Cassava Root Starches (YfCRS) were determined by the static gravimetric method at temperatures of 27 oC, 37 oC and 42 oC and water activities level of between 0.10 and 0.80. Data obtained were fitted to four sorption models (Peleg, GAB, Osw...

Cryopreservation via droplet vitrification showed high efficiency for cassava meristems (79% average recovery) when these were excised from in vitro seedlings. The efficiency of the process dropped considerably (to >23%) when meristems were excised from field-grown plants, thus precluding the use...

Bananas and plantains (Musa L. species) have medicinal applications against diseases such as hypoglycemia, hypertension, and neurological disorders, especially Alzheimer’s disease. The demand for these plants is growing very fast, resulting in a relatively heavy load on Musaceae genetic resources...
