Genetic Variability of Water Yam (Dioscorea alata L.) Tubers From Côte d’Ivoire Based on Agromorphological and Culinary Traits

Advances in Agriculture, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Assessment of the genetic diversity within existing germplasm is essential for the sustainable management of plant genetic resources, and the development of improved cultivars. Dioscorea alata is considered as one of the most widespread root and tuber crop species in tropical regions, and significantly contributes to enhancing the income of small‐scale

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.

A Sequence-Independent Strategy for Amplification and Characterisation of Episomal Badnavirus Sequences Reveals Three Previously Uncharacterised Yam Badnaviruses

Viruses, 2016
Yam (Dioscorea spp.) plants are potentially hosts to a diverse range of badnavirus species (genus Badnavirus, family Caulimoviridae), but their detection is complicated by the existence of integrated badnavirus sequences in some yam genomes.

UTILIZATION OF WATER YAM (Dioscorea alata) AS A SOURCE OF ETHANOL

Journal of Chemical Society of Nigeria, 2021
Ethanol (C2H5OH) is a primary alcohol which can be produced by fermentation, using any of the sources of carbohydrates such as sugarcane, cassava, grains and yam tubers among others. Production of ethanol fermented from renewable sources for fuel and fuel additives are known as bioethanol.
