Role of Non-Structural Sugar Metabolism in Regulating Tuber Dormancy in White Yam (<i>Dioscorea rotundata</i>)

Changes in sugar composition occur continuously in plant tissues at different developmental stages. Tuber dormancy induction, stability, and breaking are very critical developmental transitions in yam crop production. Prolonged tuber dormancy after physiological maturity has constituted a great chal...
