Exploring the genetic resources of yam in the Democratic Republic of Congo: implications for breeding
Introduction: Landrace accession of yam species in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) represents a valuable genetic resource for yam breeding programs. These accessions possess traits such as stress resilience and desirable food quality attributes that can be introduced into modern yam varieties...
