Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Food quality traits related to the genetics of yam influence the acceptability for its consumption. This study aimed at identifying genetic factors underlying sensory and textural quality attributes of boiled and pounded yam, the two dominant food products from white Guinea yam. RESULTS: A genome-wide association study (GWAS) of a panel of 184 genotypes derived from five multi-parent crosses...
