Genetic and phenotypic diversity in a germplasm working collection of cultivated tropical yams (Dioscorea spp.)
A working collection of yam (Dioscoreaspp.) comprising 53 landraces and seven improved cultivars of four species (D. alata L., D. cayenensis Lam., D. dumetorum (Kunth) and D. rotundata Poir.) was evaluated for phenotypic and genetic diversity. The evaluation involved field assessment of 24 morpholog...
