Published in 2019 at "Plant Cell Reports"

DOI: 10.1007/s00299-019-02445-7

Abstract: We apply the GWAS to sweet potato genome, and identified the SNPs associated with yield and weevil resistance. The sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam) is a highly heterozygous, outcrossing, polyploid species, which presents challenges… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10681-017-1917-1

Abstract: The development of sweetpotato [Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam] germplasm with resistance to sweetpotato weevil (SPW) requires an understanding of the biochemical and genetic mechanisms of resistance to optimize crop resistance. The African sweetpotato landrace, ‘New… read more here.
