Heterotic gains, transgressive segregation and fitness cost of sweetpotato weevil resistance expression in a partial diallel cross of sweetpotato

Heterosis-exploiting breeding schemes are currently under consideration as a means of accelerating genetic gains in sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas) breeding. This study was aimed at establishing heterotic gains, fitness costs and transgressive segregation associated with sweetpotato weevil (SPW) resis...
