Indirect plant regeneration in Dioscorea rotundata and Dioscorea alata yam genotypes using different explants

Plant Biosystems - An International Journal Dealing with all Aspects of Plant Biology
Yam (Dioscorea sp.) is an important staple crop for millions of smallholder farmers in West Africa. In this study, we aimed to develop an efficient indirect plant regeneration system for three important yam genotypes “Kukrupa,” “Mankrong Pona” and “Matches.” The potential of leaf primordia, petioles and axillary bud explants for callus induction on ...
