Yams (Dioscorea spp.) constitute a staple food crop for over 100 million people in the humid and subhumid tropics. They are polyploid and vegetatively propagated. The Guinea yams, Dioscorea rotundata and D. cayenensis, are the most important yams in West and Central Africa where they are indigeno...

Dinoderus porcellus is considered as the most important pest of stored yam chips and compounds extracted from plants can be used for its control. The present study aimed to test the insecticidal and repellent activities of powders and extracts of leaves of Bridelia ferruginea, Blighia sapida, and...

At IITA, tissue culture methods, such as meristem, shoot-tip, and node-cutting cultures, are used routinely to eliminate virus infection from improved clones of cassava and yam and for micropropagating cassava, yam, sweet potato, and cocoyams. Virus-tested improved clones of cassava, yam, and swe...
