Colchicine-induced variations in survival rate and morphological characteristics of water yam (Dioscorea alata)
The effects of 0.2% aqueous solution of colchicine on the survival rate and morphological features of five accessions of Dioscorea alata were investigated. Sprouting buds of two month old plants were treated with 0.2% colchicine and their performances were monitored until maturity. Survival of buds...
