YIIFSWA-II showcases High Ratio Propagation Technologies and demonstrates large scale production of early seed yam
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...
In experiments in 2001 to 2003, 50-day-old plants of four varieties of white Guinea yam (D. rotundata) were exposed to 10 h (short-day) day length for 15 days, 14 h for 30 days or constant 24 h, with natural day length as the control. Under natural day length the male varieties flowered earlier t...
Conventional breeding takes several years to achieve homozygosity in yam. Anther culture technology is a rapid and viable alternative for the development of homozygous plants, therefore optimizing key parameters for the establishment of an efficient protocol for yam anther culture is indispensabl...
