An intraspecific genetic map of water yam (Dioscorea alata L.) based on AFLP markers and QTL analysis for anthracnose resistance

2011-06-01

Abstract excerpt

Water yam (Dioscorea alata L.) is the most widely cultivated food yams. Despite its importance, its production is limited by anthracnose disease caused by Colletotrichum gloeosporioides (Penz.). The use of resistant yam varieties is the most reliable approach of management of this disease. The speed and precision of breeding can be improved by the development of genetic linkage maps which would provide the basis f...
