Evaluation of the chemical composition of cameroonian yam germplasm [PDF]

, 1995
The chemical composition of 98 cultivars belonging to eight yam species extensively grown and consumed in Cameroon was evaluated. Due to the fact that statistical analysis showed no significant differences between the means obtained for the variables ...

Study of the Physicochemical, Thermal, and Rheological Properties of Pretreated Yellow Yam (Dioscorea cayenensis) Flours

International Journal of Food Science, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The yellow yam (Dioscorea cayenensis) is a tuber that has local importance and some agroindustrial potential, but it is still limited because there are few studies that characterize it well. This research was aimed at evaluating the effect of combined pretreatments (immersion in 1.5% citric acid for 10 min, blanching at 50°C for 3 min, and soaking in ...

REACCIÓN DE GENOTIPOS DE ÑAME (Dioscorea spp) A LA ANTRACNOSIS (Colletotrichum gloeosporioides)

Temas Agrarios, 2013
El ñame (Dioscorea spp) es afectado por diferentes patógenos, entre los que se destaca Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, agente causal de la antracnosis. Esta enfermedad reduce la eficiencia fotosintética de la planta y ocasiona pérdidas en la producción ...

Nucleoredoxin 1 in Wheat: Genomic Analysis and Demonstration of Its Role in Redox Homeostasis and Stress Resilience

Plant Direct, Volume 9, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Nucleoredoxin 1 (NRX1), a member of the redoxin superfamily, plays a critical role in maintaining redox homeostasis and enhancing stress tolerance in plants. We employed integrated in silico analyses and CRISPR‐Cas9‐based genome editing to functionally characterize NRX1 in Triticum aestivum (wheat) responding to salinity and infection by ...

Conservación in vitro de Dioscorea alata L. clon caraqueño (Dioscoreaceae)

Revista Peruana de Biología, 2009
In this study, we report an efficient method for conservation in vitro of Dioscorea alata L. clone caraqueño during 9 and 12 months based on the culture medium modification (MS to 75% + vitamins MS + sucrose 30 g.L-1 + activated charcoal 2 g.L-1) with different manitol (0; 0,5 and 1,5%) and BAP (0; 0,1 mg.L-1) levels.

First Report of Colletotrichum siamense and Description of Lasiodiplodia adeniicola sp. nov. Causing Leaf Spot on Desert Rose in Brazil

Journal of Phytopathology, Volume 173, Issue 6, November/December 2025.
ABSTRACT In July 2021, desert rose plants were consistently observed with symptoms of brown spots on the leaves, which coalesced and promoted leaf fall. The causal agent of the disease was unknown. This study aimed to identify the pathogen responsible for the symptoms through morphological and molecular characterisation, as well as pathogenicity tests.

Understanding the genetic diversity and population structure of yam (Dioscorea alata L.) using microsatellite markers.

PLoS ONE, 2017
Yams (Dioscorea sp.) are staple food crops for millions of people in tropical and subtropical regions. Dioscorea alata, also known as greater yam, is one of the major cultivated species and most widely distributed throughout the tropics.

Intraspecific Genetic Diversity Analyses of Yam (Dioscorea polystachya Turcz.) Based on DUS Traits and SSR Molecular Markers

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.
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
