2023年5月1日 · Yam (Dioscorea spp.) is a multispecies and multipurpose tuber crop. To clarify the mechanism of tuber development, we performed a time-course phenotypic, cytological, physiological, metabolomic, and transcriptomic analysis of yam tubers.

In this video, join us as we engage in a variety of activities including harvesting white dotted yams and planting yams in our backyard farm. We'll also take you through the process of...

2022年10月1日 · Yam (Dioscorea spp.) is a multi-species and multi-purpose tuber crop. In this study, the contents of functional components, biological activities, and mineral elements were evaluated in the yam tubers of D. polystachya and D. alata cultivated widely varieties in China.

2015年6月2日 · With its more than 600 documented species; edible and inedible, it remains a difficult task to identify which one would turn yellow, dotted green, brown or black during peeling. Popular species of yam include Dioscorea alata (Water yam), Dioscorea rotundata (White Yam) and Dioscorea bulbifera (Aerial Yam). Many mothers and women have been ...

2021年1月1日 · Yam is a very essential tuber stem with relevance to nutrition, medicine and others. In this review, common cultivars of yam were discussed in respect to genetic indicators, modifications,...

2022年4月14日 · Greater yam (Dioscorea alata L.), also called water yam, winged yam, or ube, among other names, is the species with the broadest global distribution 1. D. alata is thought to have originated in...

2020年11月1日 · In this study, typical yam resources including the species of D. opposita (wild and cultivated Ruichang yam from southern China, and Tiegun yam from northern China) and two landraces of D. alata (Longyan yam and Anyuan yam from southern China) were selected as …

2023年3月23日 · We re-sequenced the whole genome of 127 yam genotypes with different quality attributes, and performed an enrichment of the already available functional genome annotation using comparative genomics. Population genomics analysis highlighted three main genetic groups and 1,053 genes under selection.

In this study, seedlings of yam tubers (D. rotundata) were treated with perfect killer insecticide prior to planting. Growth parameters, chlorophylls content and proximate composition were...

In this paper, we review the genetic parameter estimates, advances in improvement of yam for tuber yield, quality and related traits as well as their potential in facilitating breeding activities in yams.
