Molecular-marker-aided evaluation of germplasm plays an important role indefining the genetic diversity of plant genotypes for genetic and populationimprovement studies. A collection of African cassava landraces and elite culti-vars was analysed for genetic diversity using 20 amplified fragment l...

The Guinea yams, Dioscorea cayenensis Lam. and D. rotundata Poir. (D. cayenensis–D. rotundata complex), represent a highly importantcrop, widely distributed in the humid and semi-humidtropics. The ploidy levels of 170 accessions of the core set of Guinea yams from West African coun...

The harvest index (HI), which is the ratio of the economic yield to the aboveground plant biomass, is an important trait to assess progress in improving yield potential. Therefore, a study was carried out to examine the assimilate partitioning of nine Musa hybrids along with a local check for two...

Stratifying a broad target growing area of a crop into different ecological zones has been an important first step in plant breeding. To cater for the diverse maize growing environments in West and Central Africa, germplasm development and testing at IITA have been targeted to four agroecological...

Virus diseases cause substantial yield reduction in cowpea ( Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp) production in West and Central Africa. Improved cowpea cultivars have been developed and distributed to various national programs but these cultivars were tested only against local virus isolates. To identif...

Epidermal and histological characterization of Musa species and cultivars were carried out to investigate the descriptor value of calcium oxalate between groups and subgroups of cultivars. Epidermal peels of the bracts of selected plantain and banana cultivars stained with 0.01% safranin solution...
