Yam was intercropped with maize, okra, and sweet potato and subjected to various periods of weed interference and weed-free regimes. The field trials were conducted for two cropping seasons at the research farm of the National Root Crops Institute, Umudike, Nigeria, 5° 29' N latitude and 7° 32' E...

Two similar experiments are described in which the effects of different mulching materials and staking on the growth, development and yield of white yam (Dioscorea rotundata) Minisetts were studied. One white yam cultivar TDR 131 was used and the treatments were: black and white embossed polyethy...

Multilocational trials were conducted in several agroecological zones in West Africa to assess the magnitude of genotype x environment (G x E) interaction and to identify stable varieties which could be used in breeding programs in the region. The reaction of the varieties to major cassava diseas...

Spontaneous sexual and asexual polyploids occur in cassava. The cassava polyploid breeding strategies using these polyploidization processes are discussed. Sexual polyploidization has advantages over asexual polyploidization in terms of viability of gametes, heterosis, vigor, plant architecture, ...

Cassava is grown in 31 African countries and consumption per capita averages just over 100 kg/year. This article reviews traditional cassava processing and utilization as now practised by small-scale farmers and processors in Africa, and examines the opportunities for improving post-harvest opera...

Despite the advantages of root crops as important staple food crops in the tropics, research and development of such crops has been neglected. There is, therefore, the need for production, processing and utilization techniques to be developed, evaluated and made available to farmers. However, bec...

Previous work suggests that some sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas, L.) cultivars can produce high storage root yields on soils without fertilizer N addition. This study was conducted to compare storage root yields, total biomass, N uptake and fibrous root weights of sweet potato cultivars grown on l...

Background: Familial pancreatic cancer (FPC) describes a group of families where the inheritance of pancreatic cancer is consistent with an autosomal-dominant mode of inheritance. The 4q32-34 region has been previously identified as a potential locus for FPC in a large American family.
