Development of interspecific hybrids between three American yam bean species (Pachyrhizus spp.).
American yam bean (Pachyrhizus Richard ex DC.), a neotropical legume, is cultivated in Latin America and Asia for its edible and crunchy storage roots. Because of their low dry matter content and 'fruity' nature, roots are usually consumed raw. In order to increase root dry matter content and promot...
