Relative efficiency of positive selection and tissue culture for generating pathogen-free planting materials of yam (Dioscorea spp.)
Yams are staples in West Africa. They are propagated from tubers in an informal seed system. This encourages a build-up of diseases, and necessitates the rapid development of a formal seed system where certified seeds are functional. Although few reports exist on the use of meristem culture to gener...
