An EST-SSR based genetic linkage map and identification of QTLs for anthracnose disease resistance in water yam ( <i>Dioscorea alata</i> L.)
2018-05-09
Abstract excerpt
Water yam ( Dioscorea alata L.) is one of the most important food yams with wide geographical distribution in tropics. One of the major constraints to water yam production is anthracnose disease caused by a fungus, Colletotrichum gloesporioides (Penz.). There are no economically feasible solutions as chemical sprays or cultural practices, such as crop rotation are seldom convenient for smallholder farmers for su...
