Effects of variety and sett weights on sprout emergence and seed tuber yield in Dioscorea alata L. and Dioscorea rotundata Poir
Yam is a staple crop in Africa that is constrained by its low multiplication rate. This results in a short supply of seed tubers, which is a challenge to increased production. This study assessed the influence of different minisett weights (10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 g) on tuber production and seed cate...
