The use of chloroplast DNA analysis in yam phylogeny reconstruction
The enormous polymorphism and plasticity of yam has made it a difficult plant to classify using conventional taxonomic methods. Recently developed techniques of molecular genetics (DNA analysis) offer opportunities for elucidating the phylogeny and origins of yam species. This knowledge is important for the effective breeding and conservation of yam
