Biotechnology approaches in breeding for biotic stress resistance in yam (Dioscorea spp.)
Yam (Dioscorea spp.) is a major staple and cash crop in tropical and subtropical regions. However, biotic (fungus, viruses, tuber rots, nematodes, insects, etc.) and abiotic stresses (drought, low soil fertility, etc.) substantially impact the productivity and quality of yam crop in regions where it...
