Cryopreservation for the in perpetuity conservation of yam and cassava genetic resources

Cryopreservation via droplet vitrification showed high efficiency for cassava meristems (79% average recovery) when these were excised from in vitro seedlings. The efficiency of the process dropped considerably (to >23%) when meristems were excised from field-grown plants, thus precluding the use of...
