Scarcity of seed, pest and diseases are major constraints to yam production. Tissue culture techniques of meristem culture combined with heat therapy have been used to produce high-yielding virus-tested plantlets of root crops, which are later multiplied through micropropagation. However, the mic...

Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) is a tough and productive survival crop of smallholder farmers in the tropics. It is often grown where other crops fail. Research can make important contribution to food security and economic development in cassava-growing areas. This can be enhanced through in-...

White yam (Dioscorea rotundata Poir.) belongs to the family Dioscoreaceae, genus Dioscorea. It is also known as white Guinea yam, Guinea yam, and 8-months' yam. The center of origin of white yam is in West Africa. D. rotundata, a cultigen, is so close to D. cayenensis that it has been regarded as...
