Effects of elevated CO2 concentration on growth and photosynthesis of Chinese yam under different temperature regimes

Plant Production Science, 2017
Chinese yam (‘yam’) was grown at different carbon dioxide concentrations ([CO2]), namely, ambient and elevated (ambient + 200 μmol mol−1), under low- and high-temperature regimes in summer and autumn, separately. For comparison, rice was also grown under

Genetic diversity in taro (Colocasia esculenta (L.) Schott) accessions using agro‐morphological traits and DArT SNP

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Taro (Colocasia esculenta (L.) Schott) is one of the neglected root crops with great potential for ensuring food security. Nigerian taro genetic diversity has been rarely reported, particularly using single‐nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers.

Four non-starch polysaccharides isolated from Chinese yams exhibit varied immunomodulatory and antioxidant effects in zebrafish and mice

Journal of Agriculture and Food Research
The growth conditions and varieties of Chinese yam significantly affect the monosaccharide composition in non-starch polysaccharides (NSPs). Studying the extraction efficiency and biological functions of NSPs in different yam varieties is important. This

Electric Method for the Desulfation of Polysaccharides From Red Microalgae (Porphyridium cruentum) Cultures

Biopolymers, Volume 117, Issue 2, March 2026.
A non‐destructive method for depleting sulfates from the red microalgae Porphyridium cruentum by directly exposing the growth medium to a moderate electric field has been developed. The reported electric‐field separation method is a simple, straightforward, and non‐toxic means for the direct recovery of desulfated polysaccharides from P.

Ethephon Promotes Sprouting and Increases Vigor in Yam Seed‐Tubers

New Zealand Journal of Crop and Horticultural Science, Volume 54, Issue 1, March 2026.
The yam (Dioscorea alata L.) is of social and economic relevance for small farmers in Northeast Brazil, but its cultivation is hindered by the low quality of propagative material and a long dormancy period exceeding 90 days. This study evaluated the effect of Ethephon doses and different tuber segments of the São Tomé variety on sprouting and seedling ...
