“…They may be attributed to polyphenols or tannin-like compounds. Some workers (Asuzu and Undie, 1986;Okeola and Machuka, 2001;Ajibade et al, 2005) have identified the presence of some antinutritional factors (ANF) such as alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins, lectin, trypsin inhibitors, phytate and oxalate in the African yam. List of the anti-nutritional factors in the African yam bean includes trypsin inhibitor, haemagglutinating, tannic acid (tannins), phytic acid, oxalate (Apata and Ologhobo, 1997).…”

Yam is one of the most staple foods in West African countries and provides an important part of the energetic for people. This study examines chemical composition of Dioscorea cayenensis and Dioscorea rotundata Poir species dried yam chips obtained using two methods of production in Togo. Three local varieties of yams (Koukou, Kéki and Laboco) were processed in chips and were sun dried (at 28-30°C) or oven-dried (at 50°C). Nutritive components (carbohydrates, protein fats, mineral salt, vitamin C and anti-nutritional factors) of yam chips were assessed and compared with those of fresh yam. Sugar is a major component of yam chips followed by proteins, vitamin, fats, mineral salt and antinutritionals factors. For the same variety of yam, the nutritional quality depends on the method of production followed and the drying methods.

“…Research has been carried out on AYB concerning morphological characteristics of the crop (Akande, 2009;Popoola et al, 2011); genetic variability in its seed quality (Olasoji et al, 2011); nutritive and antinutritive factors in the beans (Ajibade et al, 2005). However, there is little baseline information on the relationships between seed yield, tuber production and their components coupled with its improvement.…”

Variability is an important factor to consider in crop improvement programmes. This study was conducted in two years to assess genetic variability and determine relationship between seed yield, its components and tuber production characters among twelve accessions of African yam bean. Data collected were subjected to combined analysis of variance (ANOVA), Principal Component Analysis (PCA), hierarchical and K-means clustering analyses. Results obtained revealed that genotype by year (G × Y) interaction had significant effects on some of variables measured (days to first flowering, days to 50 % flowering, number of pod per plant, pod length, seed yield and tuber yield per plant) in this study.The first five principal components (PC) with Eigen values greater than 1.0 accounted for about 66.70 % of the total variation, where PC1 and PC 2 accounted for 39.48 % of variation and were associated with seed and tuber yield variables. Three heterotic groups were clearly delineated among genotypes with accessions AY03 and AY10 identified for high seed yield and tuber yield respectively. Nonsignificant relationship that existed between tuber and seed yield per plant of these accessions was recommended for further test in various agro-ecologies for their suitability, adaptability and possible exploitation of heterosis to further improve the accessions. Variabilnost je zelo pomemben dejavnik v žlahtnenjenju poljščin. Dvoletna raziskava je bila opravljena s ciljem ovrednotenja genetske variabilnosti in analize odnosov med komponentami pridelka semena ter tvorbe in značilnosti gomoljev med 12 akcesijami afriškega gomoljastega fižola. Zbrani podatki so bili obdelani z analizo variance (ANOVA), analizo glavnih komponent (PCA), hierarhično in klastersko analizo. Izsledki so pokazali, da so imele interakcije med genotipi in leti (G × Y) statistično značilen vpliv na nekatere analizirane spremenljivke kot so dnevi do prvega cvetenja, dnevi do 50 % cvetenja, število strokov na rastlino, dolžina stroka ter pridelek semen in gomoljev na rastlino. Prvih pet glavnih component (PC) z lastnimi vrednostmi več kot 1.0 je prispevalo 66.70 % celokupne variabilnosti, PC1 in PC 2 pa sta pridali še 39.48 % variabilnosti v povezavi s pridelkom semena in gomoljev. Med genotipi so se jasno oblikovale tri heterotične skupine in akcesija AY03 je bila prepoznana po velikem pridelku semen, AY10 pa po velikem pridelku gomoljev. Neznačilno povezavo med pridelkom semen in gomoljev pri teh akcesijah bi bilo priporočljivo dodatno testirati glede prilagodljivosti na različne agroekološke razmere, možnosti njihovega izboljšanja in potencialne uporabe heterotičnega učinka.

Local accessions of African Yam Bean, a poorly studied and under-utilized but important food crop, from Abia, Akwa Ibom and Cross River states of Southern Nigeria were studied for variation in seed yield and pod characteristics. Correlations were carried out on the studied characters to determine the degree of mutual association among them while path coefficient analysis was used to partition the correlation coefficients into their direct and indirect effects on seed yield. Results revealed that significant differences (p<0.01) exist among the accessions with respect to the studied characters. Mean number of seeds per pod ranged from 13.27 to 18.87; seed weight per pod from 3.19 to 6.21g; weight of 100 seeds from 22.86 to 36.72g; pod length from 21.67 to 36.82 cm and pod width ranged from 0.79 to 1.05 cm. Number of seeds per pod and pod length had significant positive association with seed weight per pod. Pod width also correlated positively with seed weight in some accessions. Positive direct effects on seed weight per pod were obtained with number of seeds per pod and pod length. The results taken together revealed significant variations in the accessions and provide evidence for effective selection which is a prerequisite for genetic improvement.
