| Résumé : |
This study suggests that considerable potential exists for improving yields through using LLvs available in the region. Some of the gains reported probably arise from the fact that most improved and available varieties are derived from crosses between introduced materials. There is noticeable unrelatedness between these improved varieties and the LLVs which is manifested in the heterosis observed. This is to be expected, because much of the germplasm within the SADC region was collected less than 10 years ago and has therefore not been fully utilized in regional breeding programs. These materials thus represent a valuable source of variability for the future improvement of varieties for use by farmers in the region. |
