Yam cultivation in dry season was tested in the farmer’s field at inland valley in Niger state, Nigeria. Water yam (Dioscorea alata) variety TDa 95/00328 had the greater response to the gibberellin inhibitor prohexadione-calcium (PC). The sprouting period of PC treated tuber was 21 – 27 days at D...

To induce sprouting two gibberellin inhibitors, uniconazole-P (UP) and prohexadione-calcium (PC), were applied to foliage of white Guinea yam (Dioscorea rotundata) and water yam (D. alata) 30 days before harvest or to tubers at harvest. The tuber sprouting period was shortened by about 35 days in...

Sixty-day-old plants of white Guinea yam (Dioscorea rotundata), water yam (D. alata) and yellow Guinea yam (D. cayenensis) were exposed to 10 h day lengths (short days) for 15 and 30 days. Short-day treatment applied at the early growth stage of yams promoted the enlargment of tubers, but the res...

Seed tuber production of Dioscorea rotundata using the minisett technique was tested on-farm and on-station in different agro-ecological zones in Nigeria. A lower sprouting rate of minisetts was observed in the southern Guinea savanna than in the tropical forest zone. Sprouting and tuber yield in...
