Sprouting of Yam Bulbils as Affected by Chemical Treatment
The sprouting of yam (Dioscorea alata cv. Baligun-on) bulbils treated with ethephon (up to 10,000 ppm) and calcium carbide (up to 100,000 ppm) was neither hastened nor delayed.

Effects of Reproductive Materials on Growth, Corm Yield, and Glucomannan Content in <i>Amorphophallus bulbifer</i>. [PDF]
This study compares six propagation materials for Amorphophallus bulbifer. One‐year‐old corms propagated from seeds are the optimal propagation material. ABSTRACT Amorphophallus bulbifer, known for its high glucomannan content, has extensive applications and significant economic value. However, the effects of different types of propagation materials on

The Complete Chloroplast Genome and Morphological Data Support Reinstatement of <i>Sedum jinianum</i> (Crassulaceae) as an Independent Species. [PDF]
Phylogenetic analysis based on complete plastome data indicates that S. jinianum forms a monophyletic clade, sister to a well‐supported clade comprising four S. bulbiferum samples, supporting the reinstatement of S. jinianum as an independent species. ABSTRACT Sedum jinianum (Crassulaceae) has been treated as a synonym of S.

Effects of Tannin-Rich Forages (<i>Lespedeza bicolor</i> and <i>Polygonum viviparum</i> ) Mixed With <i>Medicago sativa</i> on In Vitro Rumen Fermentation. [PDF]
Mixing alfalfa with tannin‐rich forages is an effective way to improve rumen fermentation. Lespedeza bicolor showed a more prominent effect on reducing gas and methane production than Polygonum viviparum when mixed with alfalfa. When the mixing ratio of tannin‐rich forages and alfalfa was below the threshold of 40:60, the overall fermentation of the ...

Intraspecific Genetic Diversity Analyses of Yam (<i>Dioscorea polystachya</i> Turcz.) Based on DUS Traits and SSR Molecular Markers. [PDF]
The 113 D. polystachya accessions exhibited substantial genetic diversity, clearly distinguished using 19 SSR markers and 50 DUS traits. A refined set of 14 core DUS traits was established, significantly improving variety identification efficiency. These selected markers and traits provide valuable tools for genetic research and support the utilization
