Study on Starch Granules of Local Varieties of Dioscorea hispida and Dioscorea alata [PDF]

Journal of Tropical Life Science, 2016
Starch is regarded as vital in the food industry, where granule size and shape determine its function and uses. One plant taxon that is widely known as a starch source is Dioscorea (Dioscoreaceae), whose starch and protein content make it a healthy food. As the initial step to identify which varieties possess potential as starch sources, we conducted

Inberitance patterns of tetraploid Dioscorea alata varieties [PDF]

, 2009
Polyploidy is a crucial issue for yam improvement programmes. Recent studies have revealed that the basic chromosome number of the species D. alata is x = 20 and that accessions with 2n = 40, 60 and 80 chromosomes are diploid, triploid and tetraploid, respectively, and not tetraploid, hexaploid and octoploid, as usually assumed.
