The prevalence of badnaviruses in West African yams (Dioscorea cayenensisrotundata) and evidence of endogenous pararetrovirus sequences in their genomes
Yam (Dioscorea spp.) is an important vegetatively-propagated staple crop in West Africa. Viruses arepervasive in yam worldwide, decreasing growth and yield, as well as hindering the international move-ment of germplasm. Badnaviruses have been reported to be the most prevalent in yam, and genomesof s...
