Genome Editing in Root and Tuber Crop Development in Sub‐Saharan Africa
Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.ABSTRACT Precision genome editing, particularly using Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR‐associated protein 9 (Cas9), is advancing crop improvement by enabling targeted and efficient genetic modifications. Root and tuber crops such as potato, cassava, sweet potato, and yam are vital for global food and nutritional

Modelling growth and productivity of Yams (Dioscorea Spp): Prospects and problems
Agricultural Systems, 1991 Abstract This methodological paper recommends a modelling approach to achieve a greater understanding of the physiology of yield in yams (Dioscorea spp.), and of the influence of various ecological, biotic and planter-induced factors on the yield. Such a model would also permit the prediction of yield under various conditions, and would be a tool in ...

Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.ABSTRACT Monogeneans are among the most problematic ectoparasites in finfish aquaculture. Plant‐derived compounds have been widely explored as therapeutic agents, yet their efficacy and safety have not been quantitatively synthesized across studies. This study provides a meta‐analysis of plant‐based treatments against monogeneans, integrating 453 in ...
