Agronomic and hormonal approaches for enhancing flowering intensity in white Guinea yam ( Dioscorea rotundata Poir.)

Agronomic and hormonal approaches for enhancing flowering intensity in white Guinea yam ( Dioscorea rotundata Poir.)

Developing novel white Guinea yam ( ) varieties is constrained by the sparse, erratic, and irregular flowering behavior of most genotypes. We tested the effectiveness of nine agronomic and hormonal treatments to enhance flowering on under field conditions. Genotypes responded differently to flower-i...
