Mini tuber production using yam (Dioscorea rotundata) vines
AbstractMini tubers were produced from two varieties of Dioscorea rotundata using vine cuttings planted in carbonized rice husk or coco‐peat in a screen house. The cuttings established better and produced more mini tubers in carbonized rice husk than in coco‐peat 100 days after planting.

Callus Induction and Virus Free Potato Mini-Tuber Production through Meristem Culture
The experiments were conducted with a view to establish a protocol for virus free mini-tubers production, in vitro, using potato meristem as explant, collected from potato sprouts of three popular potato varieties Diamant, Cardinal, Granola. In the present study four levels of GA3 (100, 200, 300 and 400 ppm) were used to assess the influence on ...
