Identification and quantification of major carotenoids of deep yellow-fleshed yam (tropical Dioscorea dumetorum
Vitamin A deficiency (VAD) is prevalent in most developing countries. Increasing provitamin A carotenoid content in staple crops such as yam, maize and cassava can minimize this deficiency. Yam (Dioscorea species) is a major staple food in many tropical and subtropical countries. Despite its wide co...
