PHOTOCONTROL OF DIOSCOREA ALATA PLANTLET GROWTH IN VITRO [PDF]
HortScience, 1990 The effects of light spectral quality on Discorea alata cv, Oriental in vitro grown plantlets were investigated. Cultured nodes were treated with red (R) or far-red (FR) light at the end of a 14 hr photoperiod. End-of-day (EOD) light treatments did not affect organogenesis.

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.Pretreatments help improve flour quality. The increase in solubility and dispersibility is greater in D. rotundata. D. alata flours are more resistant to shear than D. rotundata flours. All flours degrade after 200°C. D. alata flours are more elastic while D. rotundata flours are more viscous.

Cœnocytic Vessel Elements in Dioscorea alata L. [PDF]
Nature, 1963 DURING the course of a morpho-histogenic study on the cultivated species of Dioscorea of Gujarat State, India, certain observations were made on the development of the vessel elements in the stem of D. alata (Kamodio variety). The vessel elements of the plant were found to be unusual in being very broad with long scalariform plates which often exhibit ...

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 ...
