Leaf physiological and transcriptomic analyses provide insights into the regulatory network underlying high yield in yam under directional cultivation

BMC Plant Biology
Background Traditional cultivation of yam (Dioscorea polystachya Turcz.), a globally important tuber crop, is notoriously labor-intensive and inefficient. Directional cultivation (DC) is an innovative agronomic practice that utilizes physical constraints
