Breeding for abiotic stress resistance in yam (Dioscorea Spp.) using biotechnology approaches: present practices and prospects
Yam (Dioscorea spp.) is an important crop providing food, income and medicine in tropics and subtropics. Major yam species in West Africa such as D. alata and D. rotundata are subject to several biotic and abiotic stresses throughout the cropping cycle and post-harvest periods, resulting in substant...
