Floral Biology and Pollination Efficiency in Yam (<i>Dioscorea</i> spp.)

Floral Biology and Pollination Efficiency in Yam (<i>Dioscorea</i> spp.)

Yam (<i>Dioscorea</i> spp.) is a monocotyledonous herbaceous vine cultivated for its starchy underground or aerial tubers in the tropics and subtropics. It is an allogamous and polyploid species that reproduces by both sexual and asexual mechanisms. However, many of the landrace cultivar...
